The meeting dates are kept to the planned week of 6 to 10 September 2021, with a Introductory/Opening Day on Friday 3 September, with strategic talks, welcome, icebreaker and other networking events, including special events for early career scientists.

The abstract submission deadline has expired.

On the overall format of the Annual Meeting
  • The conference will be concentrated into one week.
  • An Introductory/Opening Day will be held on Friday 3 September. This will include some strategic lectures, an award ceremony, ice-breaker events and networking opportunities for early-career scientists.
  • The number of parallel sessions will be basically the same as for a physical meeting to avoid as much as possible overlap conflicts. The final number of parallel sessions will depend on the number of abstract submissions.
  • The aim will be to have conference days with a recurrent structure throughout the week:
    • Keynotes/strategic plenaries will start at 9:15 and last 30 minutes including question & discussions time;
    • There will be two time blocks of two hours per day: one in the morning and one in the afternoon, with a one and a half hour lunch break in between;
    • Directly following each session block interactive rooms for each of the sessions will be arranged for free discussions, where participants can chat with whoever they meet;
    • Interactive rooms will also be organised for networking during breaks and possibly at the end of the day.

More details on the format are available on the conference page.
