Program

 

All talks take place in room 201 of the Huygens building.

 

Talks are including 10 to 15 minutes discussion time

Directed discussion = organized, in room 201

Informal discussion = spontaneous, not organized

Poster session = posters can be put up in the corridor (room for 35 posters)
