SCAS SCSA 2024 Annual Conference

Welcome

The organizing committee is happy to welcome you to our new event website! Here you will find more information about the objectives of the event, the speakers and the schedule.

You will also be able to explore the content and see the list of participants. You can also register, pay the registration costs and submit an abstract directly through this website. While you may register without submitting an abstract to attend without presenting, if you submit an abstract without registering you MAY NOT attend until you have also registered (paid) - note these are two separate pages to complete.

Abstracts are due by Oct 31, 2023. This is also the last day for EARLY registration. Starting Nov 1, 2023, LATE registration fees apply. Notification of abstract acceptance will be sent out on Nov 20, 2023. Registration closes Feb 17, 2024.

Your conference registration includes the following:

  • morning and afternoon coffee during breaks
  • 3 lunches (Feb 22, 23, 24)
  • 1 dinner (Feb 23)
