The posters will be stationed at a central spot at the conference centre and are categorized by Theme. Attendees will have the opportunity to walk around and ask questions during the whole conference. On Wednesday, there will be an exclusive beer & poster session, during which the focus is on the poster presentations. These presentations will be accompanied by some Belgian beers provided by the hosting consortium.
