Short talks will be selected based on the quality and relevance of the abstracts, with more than 60% allocated to early-career researchers.

Abstracts must be submitted in English. The abstract body should not exceed 300 words (excluding title, authors and affiliations).
Poster specifications
Posters should be presented in A0 portrait format (841 × 1189 mm).
