Abstracts have been reviewed and scheduled in one of three types of sessions:
If you submitted an abstract, see the Author Assignments page to view your assignment.
Poster and Thematic Sessions will feature research from all communities, while C. elegans Community Sessions will be dedicated to research on Caenorhabditis elegans and related species.
When it comes to attending virtual talks, you won’t be forced to choose between C. elegans and your favorite topic; Community Sessions and Thematic Sessions are held at different times, so there will be no need to miss out.
