Information for Participants

Participants are kindly advised to arrive early for each session to secure a seat. Please note that access to lecture rooms may be restricted once maximum capacity is reached. Late arrival may result in not being able to enter the room.

30 minutes are allotted for presentations in the panels (20 minutes for the lecture and 10 minutes for discussion). 

In addition to delivering a brief welcome and facilitating the Q&A session, the moderators’ primary responsibility is to ensure that the time limits for each presentation (a maximum of 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for discussion) are not exceeded. Our staff will be on hand in the rooms to assist with any technical issues.

Projectors and computers are available in all rooms. We expect you to bring your own laptop. When planning your trip, please note that Switzerland uses a different type of electrical outlet, so you will need an adapter. VGA and HDMI connections with USB and USB-C adapters are available for connecting to the projector. If you are not bringing a laptop, please save your presentation to a USB flash drive.

The conference follows the awareness and respectful conduct principles of University of Zurich. All participants are expected to contribute to a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment.
