Poster sessions
The core of the conference will consist of student research reports in the form of peer reviewed posters. The posters shall be organized around discussion groups chaired by senior scholars. Posters will be grouped around a central topic. Sessions will be chaired by a senior scholar assigned by the organizing committee. Each poster session shall consist of two parts: a very short (5 sentences) presentation by each participant of his/her own poster, followed by roughly an hour to pose individual questions to the presenting author of the posters.

Tutorial talks
The tutorials shall be given by internationally well known scholars, concentrating on a given area. This talk is not merely a presentation of some specific new research, but a survey of the tutors' own research, or of their fields, providing a general framework and message.
