Session Talks
Forming the backbone of our scientific programme, a Session Talk offers the opportunity to dive deeper into your research with a live, 10-minute presentation followed by a Q&A session.
Presentations are grouped by similar topics within a 60-minute session, facilitating focused discussions on related research areas. This format is ideal for in-depth scholarly exchange and audience interaction.
Submissions open 7 October.

Session Talk guidelines
You can submit an extended abstract if you are interested in a live, in person 10 minute talk followed by Q&A. Up to 4 talks may be grouped around a similar topic within the same session of 60 minutes total. An extended abstract is a longer version of a typical abstract, providing more in-depth information about your research. It should be a well-structured and comprehensive summary of your work, conveying its main points, methodology, findings, and significance.
You will need the following information to complete the extended abstract submission process:
Abstract title: title should be clear, concise, and descriptive, effectively conveying the main focus of your work (24 words limit)
Extended abstracts must be no more than one A4 page, excluding the title and excluding the name(s) and institutes/companies of the authors and co-authors. You must use the provided template (coming soon).
A summary of the extended abstract must be submitted as well; this will be used for promotion purposes if the abstract is accepted. (200 words limit)
All co-authors must be listed.
All listed co-authors must have reviewed the abstract and accepted responsibility for its contents.
Extended abstract titles or body should not include phone numbers, email or website addresses.
The extended abstract should consist of text and appropriate figures supporting the key messages. If a figure is included, ensure that it is referenced correctly.
Topics: refer to the topic areas listed in the call for abstracts and select the most appropriate ones (max. 2 topic areas) so that the review committee can place your abstract in the appropriate session.
List any references that are relevant to the content of your abstract submission.
A good extended abstract consists of an introduction, the main description of theory or method broken down as appropriate and illustrated with figures, conclusions, optional acknowledgements and references. It should reflect work that is actually completed at the time of submission and not plans or ideas that are still taking shape in the mind of the author or research that is still highly immature.
