Important Pre-Conference Planning and Setup

  1. Test your system upon receipt of this email to ensure you can work with Zoom Meetings and Webinars. This virtual program uses ZOOM Meetings and Webinars to deliver you the presentations via a screen-sharing technology. To help speed up the process of entering a virtual session room, please download the ZOOM plugin before the start of the symposium. Please visit  https://zoom.us/support/download to download and install the ZOOM plugin from the PC/MAC that you will be using on the day of your presentation.
