Attention Young Professionals!

Do You Need a Visa Letter?
When you register, there will be a box you can check if you need an official letter from us as part of your visa application. If you check this box, the system will e-mail an official visa letter upon paid registration. These letters do not imply financial support or invitation by SORMA.
An e-mail indicating that your talk or poster has been accepted for the program can also be helpful to your visa application. Only submitting and presenting authors get an acceptance e-mail.
Cybersecurity Awareness
- SORMA West 2025 accepts financial information only through our secure registration site, cvent.com, at the link above. We never ask that you supply or confirm such information by e-mail.
- We do not use Docusign, which is a legitimate service but has been misused to lend plausibility to conference-related scams.
If you see a questionable request for information that claims to be from SORMA West 2025, please inform us at sormawest@lbl.gov.
