Workshop's agenda

The workshop will be structured around invited science presentations and contribution talks, concluding with a discussion periods. We anticipate stimulating significant discussion and tackling the goals of the workshop.

All presentations will be recorded and will be published on this website during or soon after the workshop.

The presentation will be also streamed live. Please email Lukasz Wyrzykowski if you want to view it.
