Due to the COVID-related lockdown in New Zealand, the organising committee has decided that a virtual-only conference is now best. While disappointed to not be hosting people in person, we have a strong programme planned and feel confident that the virtual conference will be just as useful. As approximately half our audience is already virtual, for many of you, the below plan will simply provide an even richer experience.
To better suit the changed format, the programme has been updated resulting in some presentations shifting, most notably one of the sessions now being offered on the afternoon of Tuesday 7 September.
What will the virtual conference experience include?
Information for presenters:
All presenters can elect to present live virtually if desired. Please review the updated programme and ensure you have responded to the recent email to advise us if your preference is to present live or if we should use your recording. All presenters are asked to provide recordings regardless of choice as a backup precaution. We will be in touch with presenters again soon to provide you with a rehearsal option and to give clear instructions to those planning to present live.
Due to the COVID alert level changes in New Zealand announced yesterday the event committee will review plans for this event and expects to provide an update in the first half of next week.
Presenters are asked to please continue to follow preparation instructions shared by email. We do appreciate those of you based in New Zealand may require a bit more time to submit your backup recording due to the change of circumstances this week.View the programme and abstract book on the programme webpage here.
Due to the joint nature of this event, the abstract deadline has been extended to 20 June 2021 to provide additional time for ANZMBS members to submit their abstracts.
