Special Events
We’d like to bring three registration options to your attention: the Conference Dinner, the Women in STEM Lunch Event, and the Young Professionals Lunch Event.
- Don’t Miss the Conference Dinner! Join us for an unforgettable evening of networking with peers and pioneers Wednesday evening at the exclusive UC Berkeley Stadium Club. This is one of our most anticipated events, and with limited spots available, we expect it to fill up quickly. Be sure to add your dinner ticket when you register to secure your spot!
The Stadium Club is an 0.5 m (850 m) walk with 144 feet (44 m) of elevation gain from the SORMA venue. Just let us know if you will need mobility accommodations. - Join us for the Women in STEM Lunch! Tuesday, July 22 brings this welcoming and engaging event designed to foster connection, reflection, and dialogue. The free session will feature a guest speaker who will lead a guided group discussion on navigating careers in STEM, building support networks, and sharing experiences across career stages.
- Attention Young Professionals! Join our special lunch session Wednesday, July 23, “Navigating the Publishing Process: Insights from Scientific Editors.” Tailored to early career researchers, it offers a practical look into the editorial side of scientific publishing. Editors will share advice on peer review, authorship, ethical challenges, and effective manuscript preparation. It’s free, but attendance is limited to 35, first come, first served. The session will conclude with an open Q&A and informal discussion. Don’t miss out—add this session when you register!
