Over 650 such conferences have been held. The format of these typically four and one-half day conferences usually provides for morning and evening sessions in which major presentations are made.
Most conferences also incorporate poster sessions.
Afternoons are set aside for ad hoc meetings, informal discussions and recreation. This format is designed to maximize the opportunities for developing collaborative relationships and to promote dialogue on the developments of the meeting.
