and 12 Focus Meetings (FMs). All FMs and six of the Symposia will take place during the 2027 GA, at the GA

Each of the six GA Symposia (three of which will be held during the first week of the GA, and three during the second), is expected to comprise nine 1.5 hour sessions, plus posters and a plenary. In addition, the EC expects to approve up to 12 more specialized
GA FMs, each nominally comprising six 1.5 hour sessions (plus posters). FMs are proposed by groups of scientists with an aim to promote cross-disciplinary interactions while maintaining a well-defined focus on a particular topic. They often address a new scientific
area or an emerging field not well, or not at all, represented by the existing </span>

<p style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; line-height: 1; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Finally, the EC expects to approve up to three 2027 Symposia not associated with the GA. These are subject
to the same requirements as Symposia held in non-GA years, although they should not, if at all possible, be scheduled within three months of the GA. While all GA Symposia (and FMs) must be held in person (with the possibility of having a hybrid option currently
being discussed), it is possible (but not required) to request an on-line only format for non-GA Symposia.</span></p>
