PRESENTERS, PANELISTS, PARTICIPANTS and PRESIDERS:

MSS members have repeatedly noted that the quality of the meeting is built on the quality of the presentations. Thank you for your commitment to an excellent conference. We sincerely appreciate the time you will invest to ensure that your presentation is of the highest value. MSS is committed to making our meeting accessible to all. Please review our accessibility notes and suggestions for a successful presentation.

If your submission needs to be removed from the program, please RSVP as such so we can reconfigure your session. Please note that not showing to deliver your presentation impacts the organization of sessions, the quality of the conference, and your professional reputation.

Once sessions are scheduled, you will be notified by email to make a final review of the preliminary scheduled program for any spelling errors. The preliminary scheduled program will be available on the MSS website.

Please remember:

  • Presenters are required to be members of the MSS and to register for the meeting. If you are not currently a member, please purchase or renew your membership as soon as possible. Registration is open.
  • The deadline for presenter membership and registration is February 13. Presenters who have not purchased or renewed their membership and registered by the stated deadlines run the risk of being removed from the program.
