Outline of poster sessions
The poster presentations will be organized as follows:
1) there will be two poster sessions, each two days long:
    - poster session 1: Monday-Tuesday (21-22 September)
    - poster session 2: Wednesday-Thursday (23-24 September)
2) the posters will be posted for display in the morning of the first day of a session (Monday 21 September, or Wednesday 23 September);
3) the posters are on display in the same space as the coffee break;
4) each of the two poster sessions will have a plenary visit to posters, when there will be no oral presentations at the same time. The plenary visit (about 1.5 hours long) will be late afternoon, with free snacks, beer, wine and soft drinks.

The maximum size of the posters is A0 (width about 0.90 m, height about 1.20 m). The posters should be prepared in vertical (portrait) direction.
