This two-day in-person conference will take place at the Beckman Center in Irvine, CA. An in-person conference is not only an avenue for scientists to share their research with their peers, but also an avenue for engaged discussions and networking. Such an event offers intellectual stimulation and rewarding experiences that a virtual, online meeting can not offer.

There is a $175 fee for UCI affiliates and $189 fee for general admission required to cover the conference, food and beverage expenses. Please register early due to our capacity of hosting ~120 attendees. Conference attendees are encouraged to submit a 1-page abstract (<500 words) by July 5. The attendee abstracts submitted will be selected for short talks or poster presentations. Use the link above to submit.

We will work with the Beckman staff to implement proper guidelines to ensure that this conference will be a safe and healthy event. This will involve social distancing, temperature screens, and masks inside the building (masks policy continue to change, we will keep all attendees informed). All speakers and participants must show proof of a Covid-19 vaccination upon entering the building. Submit proof of vaccination here.
