The remaining abstracts will be selected for presentations at the poster sessions.
The Scientific Committee reserves the right to reject low quality abstracts, as well as abstracts and registrations not pertinent to the themes of the conference.
All presenting authors (for oral or poster presentation) will be notified via email.
