Guidelines for talks:
The SynC/Qretism symposia bring together scientists from astrophysics, cosmology, particle, quantum and condensed matter physics, with talks spanning both theory and experiment. When preparing your talk, please include:
A/ Enough background to help non-specialists understand the current state of the field. Aim for an introduction of about 10 minutes that any physicist can follow.
B/ At least three slides toward the end of your talk, addressed to other sides of the audience. These may include (i) possible collaborations with participants from other communities, (ii) tools, methods, or insights you can offer researchers in other fields, (iii) expertise, input, or tools you would welcome from researchers in other areas.
