Selection criteria
The main criteria for participant selection will be the scientific quality and research relevance to the workshop’s themes as judged by the submitted abstract.
We will take special care to achieve a balanced distribution of participants, considering a diverse representation of countries, career stages, and genders.
Participant selection will be decided by the meeting organizers.
In addition, each session contains short talks that will be selected from the submitted abstracts by the organizers. In addition, a few flash talks will be selected from the presented posters. Whenever possible we will attempt to showcase scientific results from earlier stage researchers.
