The I3S Symposium will feature :

• Plenary lectures ( 40 minutes ) given by invited scientists.
• Oral communications ( 20 minutes ).
• Poster oral presentations ( 5 minutes per poster ).
• Poster sessions.

In order to allow a maximum number of of attendees to "have a voice" in the meeting, one or several special oral sessions ( 1 hour each ) , depending on the number of posters, will be devoted to short oral presentations of twelve selected posters ( 5 minutes each ) by their authors. In order to facilitate direct and informal interactions between attendees the poster oral presentation sessions are scheduled for the first afternoon of the conference, so that everybody may associate a "face" with each poster. The poster sessions are organized in the traditional way with panels in a set of dedicated rooms or hallways.

The following topics will be covered during the Symposium :

Electrochemical sensors.
Electrical sensors
