Talks and poster formats

In some past editions the time slots for WISE were 30 minutes. This time we have reduced to 20 in order to allow for mor talks to be presented, however, do not try to cram as much information in 30 minutes as you may have done in 20. There will be plenty of time for discussions, so make sure to allow for 15 minutes for your talk and 5 minutes for questions. Technical details can be left out for discussions during the breaks.

About posters: the format is A0 vertical (portrait, not landscape).
