Setup for the HHMI Science meeting tomorrow. Is this the future of conference poster sessions? I tend to view everything as optimization steps along some unknown cost function. We are in an interesting place right now! Love seeing people try something new!

what country is that?? 😅
@PessoaBrain @kristinmbranson The US: Useful Screens.
(Looking forward to the outcome of this experiment. Also wonder if Nelson Spruston and Brett Mensch were involved or what their view on this approach to poster sessions is.)
@albertcardona @PessoaBrain Ya, I'm in Virginia USA. We will see how it goes! It is clear that no one would ever come up with this idea from scratch, but I think it went from paper posters, to virtual poster sessions where presenters gave short talks then answered questions at like 30-min intervals (these were the highlights of the HHMI meetings for me), to this as they try to bring what worked well virtually to an in-person meeting. When I was a postdoc, people would attach tablets to their posters at CV conferences to show videos.
@PessoaBrain @albertcardona Greetings from across the river!
