Scientific sessions

The Plenary opening session ceremony will take place at the Mutualité; it will include some invited talks.
The scientific sessions will be organized in parallel on Sorbonne University (Pierre & Marie Curie Campus) and in the Jardin des Plantes amphitheatres. All these places are separated by less than 500 m.
