We had so many great papers
submitted for NLS2 but didn't have the time in the programme
to showcase all of them. Instead, we will be including our
favourites in an online
programme. Reading our Pre Symposium papers is a
great way to get ready for the Symposium in December!
Keep watching in the coming weeks as more papers will be added.
