A one-day programme

The day combines invited lectures from research leaders with two round-table discussions, talks from early-career researchers and a poster session over an extended lunch. Speakers will be announced here as they are confirmed.

Tentative programme, subject to change.

Round tables

Each round table brings together speakers and delegates for an open, moderated discussion. Their conclusions will feed into a community Perspective article on the state of the field and the road ahead.

Posters and early-career talks

Posters will be on display throughout the day and presented during the lunch session. Three early-career researchers will be selected from the submitted abstracts to give short talks. See Abstracts for details.
