    2 :: Oral presentations

    Each oral speaker is asked to send a very short CV to the corresponding Session Chairs.

    As the presentation of the speaker must be very short, the Session Chairs are free to include, or not include information on the CVs.

    Please keep in mind that 20 minutes is the time allowed for each lecture and it includes the discussion period. Please do plan your presentation as a 15 min talk to allow a 5 min discussion period.

    It is very important to keep the program on time to comply with Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation strict public schedule (opening time/pause for Lunch/closing time).

    Posters must be A0 size - 120 cm (height) x 90 cm (width).
    No "landscape versions" of the A0 size will be accepted.

    Posters can be hanged from 9:00 July 17th onwards and all posters should be on place in time for the first Poster session (16:20, July 17th).
    Each poster author is responsible to put the poster in place and also to remove it. All posters must be removed from 17:50 of the 18th July till 13:00 of the 19th.
