Annual Conference – 2025

This year’s conference features a full schedule of panels, plenary sessions, receptions, luncheon, and a poster session for PhD students in the first two years of their program. Abundant opportunities for networking will await all registrants and we look forward to an action-filled conference as we convene to share new research and rekindle old friendships.

Online pre-registration for the conference is now in progress through September 26 at a discounted rate, after which registrations return to regular rates through October 10. There will also be on-site registration at the conference.

Hotel information can be found below.

Register now to take advantage of the lower rates for online pre-registration. We look forward to seeing you in Atlanta on October 23 – 25.
