Location:
The workshop will take place at the OAC (https://www.oac.gr/en/) in Kolymbari, Crete (Greece). Information on the accommodation is available in a dedicated page.
At the same page you will find the procedure for young participants to ask for financial support: we have limited availability to cover part of the travel expenses and waiving of the conference fee for some selected young participants. Priority will be given to participants submitting abstracts for talks/posters.
Remote attendance is not foreseen. We want to create the spirit of a scientific retreat, where serendipitous conversations lead to new ideas and collaborations.
Minimal schedule:
- 8 June 2025: arrival day (evening, includes dinner)
- 9--12 June 2025: workshop sessions
- 13 June 2025: departure day (morning, includes breakfast)
Please account for different timezones when consulting the timetable. In particular, Greece is on Eastern European timezone (GMT+2).
Registration and abstract submission:
