Yes, you will be able to submit your question in real time through Zoom. It is up to the session chair to select questions to ask the presenter; yours may not be included in the limited amount of time available for live Q&A. You can also submit a question to the presenter to be answered later. The presenter will be notified of the question and may answer it as they are available (Please note that we cannot guarantee that a presenter will answer your question). Recordings will also include questions that were asked during the live session.

You can also ask questions in the Conference App. Questions and answers in the App can be moderated, published for all to see, or kept private.

Poster presenters will be asked to upload a PDF of their posters and record audio overviews, which will be available in the Conference App. You will be able to ask a question of the poster presenters in the App.

Workshops held online will be open to all registrants. Select workshops will be recorded and made available through the Conference App. Workshops held during the meeting will be available to in-person attendees only. Please check the schedule for more information.

Your log-in information is not transferable. Those who cannot attend in person but would like to participate virtually or watch recordings may do so by registering as a virtual attendee.

While we have tried to create the best possible virtual experience, we cannot replicate everything about an in-person conference.  However, we have alternative virtual options. There are pre-conference virtual workshops, and some workshops during the conference will be recorded. There are also networking opportunities via the conference app and social media.

Sessions will be developed based on review of the submitted abstracts. Overall diversity across location, institution, gender, race/ethnicity, and career stage will be considered as well. All talks will be presented live. If connectivity or other factors impact your ability to present live, an uploaded recording may be possible.

Live poster presentations will only be available in person; however, all poster presenters will be able to upload a PDF of their poster and record an audio overview to accompany it, which will be available to all registered attendees through the Conference App.
