During this break, students will have the opportunity to take one of four 16-hour/week courses (previous inscription is required). People not attending the courses will have free time for sightseeing or scientific meetings. Poster sessions will be held from 19:00 on. Cheese, fruits, wine and beer will be available for the participants in these night sessions.</p>
<p><b>Social Program</b></p>
<p>A welcome cocktail will be offered Sunday evening, after the first two Plenary Lectures. Recreational and sightseeing activities will be available for participants during the afternoon breaks.

A meeting of the Scientific and Organizing Committees will also decide on the prizes to be awarded during the gala dinner. A special award to the academic life achievements of a scientist of our community will be conferred. Also a first prize and special mentions will be awarded to the best posters presented in the conference. Oral communications and posters will have individual pages in the web site, where discussion of these works may be developed. Oral presentations will be filmed and made available also in these pages.
