All plenary talks will be 17 minutes + 3 minute questions. We have 3 plenary talks.
Each shuffling splinter sessions will have 7 to 8 randomly assigned people. Each speaker will pre-record their contributed talks prior to the conference, and give a three minute pitch during each of the three shuffling splinter sessions they will attend. Other attendees will view the talks ahead of the session, and are encouraged to ask questions during each splinter.
