It will be in to come together to discuss their research and develop new directions and collaborations. The workshop differs from larger conferences in there are only invited speakers and there are no concurrent talks. Each talk should be 45 minutes long with 30 minute discussion sessions. Additionally, a poster session is organized in an effort to encourage young researchers and students to attend and present their work. A number of small travel fellowships will be awarded to the best poster submissions. Programme Organizers Contacts
