Program of the VB-NonorCI workshop

<<< Back to main page

A previous discussion meeting a long time ago.

We would like this event to be a workshop in the original meaning of the word, or rather a "discussion meeting", with the main goal of having as much exchange as possible and trying to set and to address some challenges together.

There will be three types of oral interventions:

1. « Perspective talks »: the purpose is to synthetically and didactically present the state-of-the-art of a specific approach, pinpointing questions, opening current challenges to solve, and providing food for thought for discussion. We strongly recommend the participants to prepare material for no more than a ~20-25 min standard talk (with as much as backside slide as they want of course), in order to allow a majority of the time to be dedicated to comments, questions, additions from other participants and discussions during the course of the presentation.
2. « Short perspectives »: during those shorter intervention a specific facet or point related to one of the « perspective talks » or more generally to the topic of the session will be very briefly presented and discussed. In the same spirit as the "perspective talks", we strongly recommend participants to prepare material for no more than a ~10-12 min standard talk in order to allow a majority of the time to be dedicated to comments, questions, additions from other participants and discussions during the course of the presentation.
3. « Points »: "Framed discussions" will takes place at the end of the half-day session dedicated to a precise "challenge" to be addressed. During it, 2-3 participants will extremely briefly introduce ONE specific point (ONE precise idea, suggestion or question, related to the theme of the session), in no more than ~3-5 min (=> ~1-2 slides), and open questions for the discussion; to be followed by extensive discussions framed by an animator, in order to address collectively this particular "challenge".

So this event will not feature usual types of scientific presentations, but original and specific forms of contributions with the intention of stimulating discussions, exchanges, collective work, with a format intended to favour this.

The global schedule can be found below. We have kept it the least structured possible in order to allow maximal flexibility.
