A tremendous thanks to Pfister Labs for designing and supporting this and other IASC websites! Incredible work! (Please note: This post was made by the conference organizers, not by Pfister Lab. 😉 )
Congrats IASC members! Because of YOU — and the support of the IASC 2025 online engagement subcommittee and a terrific local tech management team — we demonstrated to the world how positive global collaboration can be accomplished. A truly REMARKABLE accomplishment that we all should be proud of.
Want to continue discussion with a colleague? We are running multiple online unconference engagement sessions this week. See our Teamup calendar to find what sessions are best for your timezone and contact the people you want to continue talking to. Consider planning some kind of IASC event for later in 2025 or in 2026!
THANKS FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS MAKING IT A GREAT CONFERENCE!
- IASC MEMBERS – build on your conversations and propose new IASC events in 2025-2026! See here for directions on how to propose something.
