"Morning" Coffee

For one hour before each day's session starts our Gather.Town will be open for general pre-meeting socializing. On Friday there will also be a dedicated "Career" room for networking especially with our European colleagues at the end of their day.

Random Pairings

For half an hour before and after the meeting on Wednesday we will be repeating the "random pairing" event debuted at the 2019 San Diego meeting, where people were randomly paired with someone they didn't know to make new connections. The topics of conversation are up to you and your conversation partner, and will surely vary widely! No registration is needed, but please arrive promptly.

:00 Introductions in main Zoom room

:05 First random pairings in breakout rooms

:15 Return to main Zoom room

:20 (Optional) Second random pairings

We will be organizing two public outreach events during the conference, on Tuesday and Thursday at 4:30pm Pacific. See the outreach page or the Indico agenda for details.
