The conference that is usually every three years was delayed a year, and is now virtual.
Tiago Pereira refers to his colleagues when he explains the organization of the Zoom meeting: - This is thanks to the work of Souvik Bose, Kilian Krikova, Thore Espedal Moe, Nancy Narang and Mats Ola Sand.
A big experiment
- We will be hosting the plenary sessions plus six parallel sessions for poster talks.The six parallel poster sessions will take place in regular Zoom meetings, which have each a limit of 300 participants. We may be running close to capacity, so they are limited to registered participants. We may be able to run some in smaller meeting rooms, depending on how it goes in the first day. it will still be a big experiment, explains Tiago Pereira.
- The timetable can be overwhelming. It is not easy to show 413 talks in a
concise manner!
The RoCS scientific staff will see the plenary sessions together in the RoCS large auditorium or at Zoom from home.
