VIRTUAL POSTERS
Virtual posters were introduced last year in the pivot to a virtual conference and were well received, so this year we will try to incorporate them into the regular conference. Posters are either a short series of slides or a short video that will be viewed on a computer. They are hosted on our conference website, organized into themes, and viewable before and during the conference. There will be dedicated times during the conference for groups of poster authors to gather (both virtually and in-person) to answer questions about their individual poster and discuss the general theme of the group. These poster sessions will be available to the in-person attendees in a dedicated meeting room as well as a virtual meeting room for remote attendees. You can see the 2021 posters at https://compostconference.com/2021-posters/


Proposers can choose a live presentation or poster presentation. Live speaking proposals that are not selected for presentation may be offered a poster presentation.
CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
In addition to the two days of tracks with three 90-minute sessions each, we have several half-day and full-day preconference workshops. We are interested in expanding and diversifying our workshop offerings.
