VIRTUAL ATTENDANCE ONLY
This conference is run in conjunction with Research Week at Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU). OHSU has a policy of either supporting virtual events or in person events. OHSU discourages hybrid events due to equity concerns that arise for virtual attendees who cannot receive the same full conference experience as in-person attendees.
The Planning Committee for this conference has given serious consideration to the OHSU policy and has accordingly decided to hold this conference fully virtually.
