Dear Colleagues,

UPDATE:  
  • More than 120 individuals have registered for the Annual Meeting next month. This is great news!  
  • The Scientific Coordinating Committee has decided that the registration deadline is now extended to Monday, June 13th.  
  • About 70 individuals have signed up to give talks. If you indicated on the registration form that you wish to give a talk, but have not yet provided your title, abstract, or the length of your talk, now is the time! The deadline for sending in all information about talks is also Monday, June 13th. Please copy the headings below and paste them into an email to me at westneyh@caryinstitute.org with a cc to Jackie Matthes at jmatthes@wellesley.edu with the details of your talk:

Things to keep in mind:

About registration
  • All attendees must submit a completed registration form.
  • If you are paying for others, please list those individuals' names and email addresses on the form. Please ensure each individual completes and submits their own registration form. (Please make sure you also complete a form for yourself!)
  • If someone is paying for you, please complete your own registration form and enter the name and email address of the person paying your fee.
  • If you'd like to give a talk (and you have not already registered), please include ALL information on the registration form: length of talk / title / abstract. If your talk is part of a series, list the name(s) and email address(es) of other presenter(s).
  • If you've already registered and signed up for a talk but have not provided all information, please copy and paste the headings with your details and email them as outlined above.
About COVID-19
  • The Scientific Coordinating Committee understands that some people may decide not to attend in person due to health concerns. 
  • Unfortunately, we cannot offer a hybrid meeting, but we are investigating options for providing basic streaming of the meeting (viewing only).
  • We are working with Plymouth State University to create a conference environment that is as safe as possible for everyone.
  • The meeting space is large, with two sets of screens and projectors that are well spaced-out.
  • Signage prior to entry to the building and to the lobby and meeting room will request that masks be worn by all attendees at all times other than while actively eating or drinking.
  • There will be sanitizing stations and extra masks at various points throughout the venue.
  • Breakfasts and lunches will be served buffet-style in single-line fashion with tables staggered against opposite walls. Every effort is being made to eliminate congestion.
  • Meals can be enjoyed at three locations, so that attendees can be spread out while eating: at small café tables in the lobby area; at outdoor tables; or at tables in the meeting room.
  • Health and safety adjustments will be made, if necessary, closer to the event.

IMPORTANT:  If you know of anyone who might not receive this email (e.g., a student) because they may not be on the Hubbard Brook listserv, please forward this message to them.

Thanks!  Hope to see you soon,

Hazel
