Minisymposia

Each Minisymposia is expected to consist of at least one 2-hour session(6 presentations of 20 minutes each). The number of sessions of each MS will be determined by the multiples of six papers submitted.

In each MS a Keynote lecture is allowed every two full sessions of the MS, where a keynote presentation normally comprises two presentation slots. This means you should have at least 10 confirmed presentations to schedule a KL.

The above scheduling includes time for questions and discussion.
