Conditions

  • The conference staff will verify the participants in the Zoom rooms. They will remove those not identifiable as conference participants and fail to answer the request to identify themselves.
  • For security reasons, the Zoom links will not be sent to the speakers. To access the virtual rooms, please follow the indications that you will find on this website.

Virtual presentations

  • The conference is live streaming, and it will not be recorded.
  • The virtual oral presentations will take place through Zoom, while the poster presentations will run in Gather Town.
  • To access or deliver a virtual presentation, please follow the corresponding indications that you will find on this website.

Timing

  • All the times in the programme are in (UTC+1) (CET- Central European Time).
  • The virtual Zoom rooms will be opened 20 minutes before the conference starts each day, but you can start the process to access before and you will be allowed to enter once they open.

Passwords

  • On the registration tool, you will find the Zoom and Gather Town passwords to enter either the virtual rooms.
  • Valid passwords will be available for the test session and during the conference days.
