Practical information

A user's guide about the application and how the conference works can be downloaded here.

Oral sessions : presenting authors are kindly asked to prepare a recording of their presentation (for reasons of network robustness). During the session, the chairpersons and presenting authors will be connected to an online meeting, while the other participants will attend that meeting on the application. While looking at that presentation, attendees will be able to ask questions by chatting on the application. The chair person will select the questions to be asked and the authors will answer them orally.

Requirements for the presentations are : max. duration 13 mn, format .mp4 or .avi

Please note : at the end of each session, the online meeting will be open to all attendees. Thus some more questions can be asked to authors, discussions can take place or the session chairs can initiate a general panel discussion.

Session chairs : please connect to the Zoom meeting a few minutes before the start of the session. You will be welcome by the technician assistant, who will take in charge all practical issue (starting the video, switching the mikes on and off...).
Each time slot is 20 mn., but presentations should last a maximum of 13 mn. So you will have some time to introduce the speaker and to ask him some questions at the end of the video - exactly like in real life.

Poster session (thursday 10 dec., 13h10 - 14h10) : each poster will correspond to a Zoom meeting allowing free discussion. Authors will be able to share any document during that meeting. They are asked to prepare a pdf file of the poster, or a short video, to be uploaded here before November 16th.

If you have any question, please visit the FAQ page or contact us.

Lyon is located in the Central European time zone (UTC+01:00). Therefore some of you will have to get up early in the morning and others will stay up late. In any case, the entire organization team will be there if you need any support.

No need to pay change fees. Sit down and relax. 

You will not need any expensive adaptators!  Make sure your laptop is fully charged.
