11:40-12:30 Discussion Session 3 [50] Moderator: Masahide Yamaguchi
- What are the promising (general) ways to produce fNL~O(10)?
- How can we test multi-field models? Can we ever rule them out in general?
- Experimental signatures of different entropy perturbations?

16:10-17:00 Discussion Session 4 [50] Moderator: Sarah Shandera
- What more do we need to do on the scale-dependent bias (if any)?
- Are we confident about the size of the error bars?
- What else should we be looking? Bispectrum? Trispectrum?
