Dear Colleagues!
The virtual NEST Conference 2020 on 29/30 June is less than two weeks away and we are happy to invite you to an exciting program of presentations and workshops, which you will find below. The conference will be single track to facilitate interactions
and include virtual coffee breakouts to mix and mingle.
See you at the NEST Conference 2020!
