EPoLM-3 Programme

The conference will start on June 14th at 9:30 and finish on June 16th at 16:00. The programme includes invited talks and shorter contributions. For the latter, we especially encourage students and young scientists to send abstracts.
A few will be selected for oral presentations. Others will be in the form of posters. A long lunch/poster session will be organised on thursday.
