be a plenary open mic session, during which everyone wishing to make a brief comment with slides will be able to do so. While a speaking slot for the open mic session can be requested at the meeting, it would help us to organize the session if you can already
provide a tentative title in the box for that purpose on the registration page.</span></p>
