Talks may be presented in any language, although abstracts will need to be submitted in English. In addition, English subtitles will be required for all talks, and slides should be in English. Posters should be submitted in English. Please note that we only accept talks in other languages if the subtitles (not the transcription) are also provided - subtitles should be prepared with the time coding and in the right format ready to be used.
Following their success the last couple of years we also aim to host regional or special language sessions during the Workshop.
