Topics

The well-established and interactive structure of the programme includes five keynote lectures, each of them followed by thematically grouped oral presentations by participants, selected according to the high quality of their submitted abstracts. The remaining abstracts are presented during two poster sessions. Moreover, a practical course will provide new insights in cutting-edge technologies.

Seventy participants will be selected based on the scientific quality of their submitted abstracts. These participants will be invited to register for the Winter School and to present their work either as an oral presentation or as a poster.
