  E. Χilouris - Infrared emission from dust and gas in galaxies
  G. Magdis - How Galaxies Live and Die
  
• Tuesday 12 July: X-ray surveys - Black hole evolution across cosmic times
  Talks
  I. Georgantopoulos - Active Galactic Nuclei
  T. Akylas - X-ray Astronomy: From V-rockets to Athena mission
  
• Wednesday 13 July: X-ray emission from AGN

  D. Emmanoulopoulos - AGN variability
  
• Thursday 14 July: Jets from AGN
