The morning and afternoon sessions will have invited talks. The evening sessions on Wednesday and Friday will have posters with light food and beverages. The posters will be accessible during the entire symposium. Thursday evening will be devoted to a dinner in the canteen. Finally, on the Saturday, there will be a hike in the hills around Stuttgart.

The symposium is open for submission of posters and registration to scientists and students interested in electronic structure, but the number of participants is limited.
