- Successful submission of an abstract or full paper does not constitute confirmed attendance at the conference; registration and payment must be completed separately and within the stated deadlines to secure your place, and the organizing committee reserves the right to reschedule or modify the program in response to unforeseen circumstances.
- The conference program is organized across multiple parallel and plenary sessions; while every effort is made to accommodate presenter scheduling preferences, the committee cannot guarantee that all attendees will be able to attend every session, and delegates are advised to review the final program in advance to plan their participation accordingly.
