Parallel Mini Talks
("Poster Session")

*Due to organisational aspects, the presentations of Jason Chin and Rumiana Dimova on Monday and Wednesday had to be switched.

Mini Talks

  • Next to keynote presentations, we will have "Mini Talks" as a replacement for conventional poster sessions
  • There will be two Mini Talk sessions, one on on Monday and one on Tuesday
  • Mini talks are organised as small video conferences (BigBlueButton) with a small number of participants in order to facilitate personal communication
  • Each mini talk should be presented in three rounds, each round lasting 15min. After each round, participants switch to the next mini talk, and mini talk presenters repeat their presentation to a new audience
  • Each mini talk should consist out of maximum 6 slides, to be presented in roughly 7min, the remaining 8min should be reserved for discussion
  • You can submit a mini talk during the registration process
  • Submission of mini talks require approval by the scientific committee
