Poster session and Best Poster Award
If you are interested in presenting a poster, please indicate so in the registration form, indicating a tentative title, a list of authors, and an abstract (only for review; will not be published). Please note that spaces are limited and you will be notified whether your poster submission is accepted. Abstracts for consideration must be submitted by 15th June 2025.
The interactive poster sessions will not be parallel with the invited plenaries. The presenters of each poster will have to attend the poster session, which will hopefully stimulate discussions and promote the exchange of ideas.
There are no published proceedings of the summit.
All posters will be entered into the competition to win the best poster award.
Workshops
Two parallel workshops will take place on Tuesday morning, approximately from 9 to 12.
Workshop 1: Moonshot research
A workshop intended for PIs and soon-to-be PIs that want to discuss what it takes for excellent multidisciplinary research to flourish. In a series of guided activities, we will look back and share success stories, investigate what made them successful, and distill some instructions on how researchers can shoot at the moon!
The number of seats is limited. A registration link will soon be provided here.
Workshop 2: Unexpected technologies and irresponsible automation
An ice-breaker open to all CLOCK participants! You'll get to know a bit about the NCCR Automation and use your creativity to imagine what new technologies could emerge - or go rogue!
No registration is needed.
Round Tables and Panel Sessions
Thursday afternoon will be reserved to interact and discuss pressing technical and non-technical topics.
Details will be posted soon.
