Conference Program

For the 2010 conference, we are excited to offer extended sessions which include 4-6 presentations, a discussant, and time for questions. To accommodate the extended conference sessions, we are moving the short course to Wednesday afternoon, and starting the conference on Thursday morning.

We hope that this new schedule will offer a more dynamic conference experience to the presenters and the conference attendees. Download the tentative conference program here: Conference Program Guide. The final conference schedule is shown below.
