Long talks [L] will be in a 12' + 3' format
Short talks [S] will be in a 4' + 1' format
Long and short talks need to be uploaded to this folder by Wednesday 8th January. If you would like to present using your own laptop you will need to join the Zoom link at the start of your session and remember to share your screen.
Spotlight talks will be 90 seconds long and one slide only. Spotlight talks will be in person and should highlight one key science result or the area of research, but not try to summarise your whole research.
Spotlight talks need to be uploaded to this folder by Tuesday 7th January.
Presentation venues: Herschel Building LT2 (ground floor)
All coffee breaks, lunches, and the welcome/registration will be in the Herschel foyer
