The programme of 95 sessions, each of 90 minutes duration, was developed by the International Programme Committee from submissions to an open call to the scientific community for proposals. Over 400 high quality proposals, with speakers representing 40 different nationalities, were received. The International Programme Committee applied a rigorous peer review process to select the best proposals against criteria such as quality, originality, topicality, interdisciplinary approach and international perspective.
