Programme

Following up on last year’s feedback, we’re destined to increase the sustainability and accessibility of the Max Planck Symposium. In times of a global pandemic, this approach goes hand in hand with the health and safety of our participants. We have therefore decided to transform the Max Planck Symposium 2020 into an Online Conference, with keynotes, workshops, a panel discussion and evening networking activities to allow for the traditional interactive spirit of the Max Planck Symposium.
