Technical program

An electronic copy of the Conference Program will be available for download at the beginning of July, 2026.

Duration of oral presentations: 20 minutes in total, including 2 minutes for Q&A and 1 minute for the changeover. There will be a timing system that clearly displays the time limits for speakers and audience members.

Note: All presenters must use their own laptop computers to make their oral presentations. The video connection will be a full-size HDMI connection. An HDMI-to-USB-C adapter will also be provided in each room. Participants whose computers use video ports other than HDMI and USB-C are responsible for bringing their own adapters.

Banquet Dinner in Heidelberg Castle, July 29, 2026

Heidelberg Castle is one of the most famous ruins in Germany and the landmark of the city of Heidelberg. Until its destruction in the War of the Palatinate Succession, it was the residence of the Electors of the Palatinate. Since its destruction by the soldiers of Louis XIV in 1689 and its demolition by French sappers on September 6, 1693, Heidelberg Castle has been only partially restored. The castle ruins rise 80 meters above the valley floor on the northern slope of the Königstuhl and dominate the image of the old town from there. Today it is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Europe. 

Heidelberg Castle can be reached from the congress center in around 30 minutes by foot through the beautiful old town. The banquet will take place in the castle courtyard, weather permitting; otherwise, it will be held in the Königshalle (King’s Hall).
