Oral contributions

The following time slots are allocated for individual presentations:

• Main session: 20 minutes (15 minutes for the presentation + 5 minutes for discussion).
• Section of Youth: 15 minutes (12 minutes for the presentation + 3 minutes for discussion).

Presentations in the Section of Youth will be delivered exclusively in English.

We ask all speakers to strictly observe the allotted time, including time for questions and discussion. Further opportunities for scientific discussion will be available during breaks and informal gatherings. A data projector connected to a computer running Windows will be available for presentations.

As in previous years, a scientific committee will evaluate the scientific merit, clarity, and quality of presentations in the Section of Youth. The best presentations will receive awards. We wish all contestants every success!

Poster presentations

Posters will be displayed throughout the conference in the middle hall of Hotel Continental, which will also host presentations by partner companies.
We ask authors to put up their posters on Tuesday morning and leave them on display until the end of the conference.

The poster sessions will take place in two blocks:

• Tuesday from 17:00: odd-numbered posters.
• Wednesday from 14:00: even-numbered posters.

Poster presentations will consist of short oral explanations delivered directly at each poster. We therefore ask authors to prepare a brief introduction to their work lasting no more than 1–2 minutes, followed by time for questions and discussion.

Presenting authors are asked to be present at their posters during the relevant poster session and ready to discuss their findings.

Best poster competition

This year, we are once again holding a public vote for the best poster presentations, with the winners chosen by the conference participants themselves.

At registration, each participant will receive a ballot on which they can select three posters that impressed them most through their scientific content, design, or presentation.

Voting will close on Wednesday after the final afternoon break. The authors of the three posters receiving the most votes will be awarded small gifts.

Thank you all for your active participation. We look forward to engaging presentations and inspiring discussions!
