Language

All oral presentations should be given in English, Dutch or French language. The language of the presentation should in all cases be the same as the language of the title and the abstract as shown in the programme.

The Organizing Committee of OB strongly recommends English for oral presentations, in order to maximize the international appeal of the meeting.

In all cases, the audiovisual material should be presented in English (slides, movies, ...). No other languages are acceptable.
