The conference’s aim is to provide a platform for students to present their
topics and share their ideas and scientific approaches in a professional
context and to engage in valuable discussions about various topics within

English-speaking countries and therefore welcome any contributions from the
areas of

One conference day will be dedicated to each of those areas, the final
schedule will be provided on the conference website.
