This vSPPL2020 programme is based on the structure of the programme for the SPPL2020 workshop planned in London; authors had the option of submitting either a poster or narrated slides, whichever format their paper had initially been accepted as. Presentations will be linked to this page as they are received. See List of accepted abstracts and Invited speakers pages for authors’ affiliations
