Code of Conduct:


We aim to host a professional, inclusive, and welcoming meeting. We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for everyone. We expect our participants to behave professionally. Harassment and sexist, racist, or exclusionary comments or jokes are not appropriate at any time (including lunches and social events).

Attendees violating these rules may be asked to leave the conference at the sole discretion of the organisers.

Overview:

The purpose of this online mini-workshop is to build bridges and foster collaborations between scientists working on tests of general relativity with electromagnetic and gravitational waves. Communication between the participants will be fostered by having few talks and scheduling discussions time. There will be no parallel sessions, and everybody is expected to attend every session, thereby ensuring enough cross-discussions among participants from different areas. Discussions will be centered on the constraints from each technique, what is expected in the future, and possible synergies among different methods.


Every talk is 25 minutes + 5 minutes for Q&A, and we will have dedicated time for further discussion.
