| Conference Cost: | Please note that conference fees include the cost of three meals (plenary breakfast, awards luncheon, and keynote brunch), two receptions, one copy of the conference program, and one name tag. The cost of participation in the annual WSC conference depends on one's membership status. Because membership dues are used to supplement the cost of conference participation, the cost for WSC members to participate in the conference is less than it is for non-members. For a full description of the cost structure for both membership fees and the corresponding conference registration costs, press here. |
| Present: | The online abstract submission system for the WSC's 2014 conference is now open for submissions. The deadline to submit abstracts is October 4, 2013. |
