Call for Abstracts
A call for abstracts (presentation and posters) will be emailed in late January or early February once the symposium web site is up and running. Submit your abstracts early; once the slots are filled any extra abstracts will be backups for any speaker cancellations. Speakers must register for the symposium for final abstract acceptance after receiving notification from the technical program chair/moderator. We will accept placeholder abstracts for presentations and posters from professionals and students until March 6. Students who present a talk or poster are eligible to receive a discounted symposium registration.
