Pre-Congress Activities & Registration Opening
Masterclass activities, workshops and the opening of congress registration.
Programme
Conference structure
The congress programme is organised around complementary formats. Panel Workshops are practice-oriented, generally sponsored discussion sessions where presentations are designed to open a structured exchange among panelists and the audience. Proposed Sessions are sessions proposed and managed by chairs. The JFK Award Session hosts the special session of the John F. Kennedy Student Paper Competition, where shortlisted students present their papers before an international panel of experts. Standard Sessions and High Level Panels are managed by the congress organization, potentially in coordination with the IAHR Technical Committees.
Opening, Keynotes, Concert Event & Welcome Drink
The official opening day will take place at Teatro Petruzzelli, including keynotes, the concert event and the welcome drink.
