The schedule of the meeting includes 20 plenary conferences (30 min) organised in 4 different sessions. The attendants are encouraged to present their work in poster communications. The scientific committee that organises this meeting will select a reduced number of these communications to be presented as short talks (10 min). The summaries of the conferences, short talks and poster communications will be published in the abstract book of the congress. | |
