Register Now! SCEC2022 (in person September 11-14, 2022)

Date: 07/26/2022

Dear SCEC Community,

Registration is now open for the 2022 SCEC annual meeting, which will be a mash-up of in-person and online activities. In-person plenary talks and discussions, live poster sessions, and networking events will take place September 11 through 14 at the Palm Springs Hilton Resort in Palm Springs, California. Recorded talks, poster materials and networking tools will be available 24/7 online to both in-person and online-only participants.

And through September 21, all meeting registrants will continue to have access to the online materials. We hope you will take the opportunity to continue the conversations in the online poster gallery and Zoom rooms introduced in 2020 and 2021.

MEETING PROGRAM. The SCEC Science Planning Committee has designed a program that reflects the breadth of our research collaboration. The SCEC2022 meeting program consists of thematic plenary sessions with invited talks, moderated discussions, plus the most popular Distinguished Lecture on Sunday evening. The SCEC community is invited to share their results and activities during the poster sessions. Lightning talks that introduce the poster presentations will be featured prominently. An online poster gallery, as well as live in-person poster viewing sessions, will facilitate connections and collaborations. (Check out the 2021 SCEC Annual Meeting poster archive for a sense of poster presentation format.)

Abstract submission is open now with an extended August 19 deadline!
 
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. SCEC2022 will be the first in-person annual meeting in three years. The meeting will consist mainly of in-person activities, with supplemental online features offered through the SCEC annual meeting platform to further facilitate connections and discussions between participants. During this meeting, we are also taking precautions to suppress the spread of COVID, including requiring masks in the plenary and poster rooms, working with the venue to improve ventilation, and ensuring ample time each day for people to circulate and connect in outdoor spaces.
 
COSTS, TRAVEL & FAQs. Please explore the meeting website for more information about registration fees for in-person and on-line-only participants, venue information, and full COVID mitigation guidelines.

REGISTER NOW! We invite you to register for SCEC2022 and submit a poster abstract by August 19, 2022 (5:00pm Pacific Time). By accepting an invitation to participate in any SCEC-supported event, by email or online registration, participants agree to abide by the SCEC Activities Code of Conduct.

We can’t wait to reconnect with you in Palm Springs for SCEC2022!

Sincerely,
SCEC Meetings Team
