Oral Presentation Session
Even though it's not possible to organize the oral presentation session in the way we are all used to and to meet every single one of you in person this year again, we are glad to announce the opportunity to present your research in virtual space!
There will be different sessions divided throughout the 4 days of the conference based on the topics they discuss. Your oral presentations will be placed in these sessions depending on your research topic.
Please remember that the number of oral presentations will be very limited, so we ask you to register as soon as possible.
