The abstract submission and registration opened on Mar. 6, 2024:
The indico system (see above) is used to register and submit abstracts of contributed talks and posters.
Abstract submission Deadline: May 1st, 2024

Summer School
The school will feature block lectures 6 x 45 minutes covering four cutting-edge research topics centred on topics covered in the XQCD conference, providing an in-depth review of these fields for PhD students.
There will be no participation fee. We plan to cover the local accommodation of around 20 participants who need financial support to attend the school. The application for participation opens on May 1st, 2024. Notification of acceptance will be sent on May 8th, 2024.
