FOrmat and procedure

Symposia should include presentations on a specific theme and integrate findings from different research projects. Symposia are organized by a convenor, and will be scheduled for 1 hour and a half or 2 hours. They will include 4 or 5 presenters (normally speaking for about 20 minutes each), plus 15 minutes for a discussant stimulating interaction with the audience.

Individual papers regard presenting original research and/or research reviews after invitation. Individual papers will be grouped into thematic sessions, according to their topic.
Some of the thematic sessions might be organised as round tables, with a discussant that chairs the session and invites the presenters to illustrate and debate their findings in a prominently interactive environment.

Workshops offering practical illustrations of best, evidence-based practice are invited.

Poster presentations will be made during poster sessions.
