This schedule is preliminary, just to give you an idea of the rough structure of the two days at the MRS x MRathon. The structure on site will be very fluid - you can pop in and out of groups as you like, and we may collaboratively decide to insert more opportunities for attendees to present, interact, hold little tutorials, etc.
Get inspired and warm up your mind for MRS x MRathon! š„Ā
