Town hall meetings

Town Hall meetings will take place in the same lecture rooms as the oral sessions and will last for one hour. To foster meaningful exchanges, at least 20 minutes of each session must be dedicated to audience discussion.

Please note that session organizers will be required to provide a brief summary of the town hall conclusions after the session for the congress restitution. Further details will be shared in due course.
