Poster Sessions
Posters will be displayed during the entire meeting and will be presented Tuesday and Wednesday evening in spacious rooms. About 10-20 poster presenters will be selected to give a poster “Lightning Talk” Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon, so submit your poster abstract early for full consideration! The deadline for submitting abstracts for poster presentations is November 1, 2021.
Career Development
The meeting will include a Career Development Lunch, where young investigators can meet with scientific leaders from academic, industry and governmental institutions. If you wish to participate as a mentor or mentee, please indicate this during registration and you will receive a follow-up survey to select discussion topics prior to the meeting.
