The PRISM 2022 Conference, hosted by MIT SPS, will be held on Thursday, September 1 and Friday, September 2, 2022 (10 am-4 pm on both days). If you are an MIT, Harvard, or Wellesley student doing physics research or a student from another college doing physics research with an MIT-affiliated supervisor, we highly recommend that you sign up to present a talk or poster at this event!
We hope that this will be a valuable opportunity for all of you to showcase your work in a friendly and welcoming environment. We also hope that this will give you a chance to hone your presentation skills and see the exciting research that your peers are doing in all areas of physics. We will have both virtual and in-person sessions for this conference depending on speaker availability.
If you choose to present, you will be asked to present either a talk or a poster. Unfortunately, due to time limitations, we cannot allow students to present both. Each talk will have a 10-minute time limit with 2 minutes for Q&A. People presenting virtually are strongly encouraged to give talks, given logistical limitations, while in-person presenters are welcome to present either talks or posters.
In-person attendees will need campus access granted by MIT, either via MIT affiliate access or with Tim Tickets. Please visit now.mit.edu for the latest details on MIT campus access.
Speaker registration for PRISM 2022 is now closed. Attendance is open to the MIT community and broader public with registration now open until Monday, August 29 here. There are four main ways to participate in PRISM:

Talks—in-person: Present a 10-minute talk live in-person in the MIT Physics Pappalardo room (4-349).

Q&A—virtual or in-person: Attendees will be able to ask live questions to all presenters about their work, whether they be in-person or virtual.
