Program

Conference program

The colloquium will take place over three days, from 1–3 July 2026, in a single-session format that allows all participants to follow the full scientific program. A detailed day-by-day schedule will be announced at a later date.

Rather than traditional keynote lectures, the program will feature dedicated round table discussions each afternoon, moderated by leading experts. These round tables are designed to create a structured yet open environment that fosters active scientific exchange and encourages in-depth discussion across the community.

Presentations format

All presentations will follow the same format:

• Talk length: 15 minutes
• Discussion time: 5 minutes for questions and exchange with the audience
• Technical setup: Presenters should bring their own laptops to connect and project slides (standard connectors will be provided)

Scientific program

The detailed scientific program will be published after the notification of acceptance.

A Book of Abstracts will also be made publicly available at that time.

Social program

The colloquium will also offer opportunities to connect beyond the lecture room. More detailed information will follow soon, but the social activities are designed to give participants a chance to discover Berlin’s unique blend of history, culture, and vibrant city life while enjoying time together in an informal setting.
