Technical Program

Enjoy Attending Sessions!

All sessions will take place at the Colorado Convention Center, 700 14th Street, Denver, CO 80202 USA.

This year, GSA is offering 156 Topical Sessions for you to choose from, each designed to promote the exchange of interdisciplinary, state-of-the-art information. You can filter the topical session list by category or sponsor to help find the one you're after.

In addition, GSA will have a multitude of Discipline Sessions. Discipline sessions are equally vital to completing our technical program.

Finally, there are the prestigious Pardee Keynote Symposia with invited speakers.

All speakers must pay the meeting registration fee in order to present papers and/or posters at the meeting.

Oral

The normal length of an oral presentation is 12 minutes, plus three minutes for Q&A.
You must visit the Speaker Ready Room at least 24 hours before your scheduled presentation.
All technical session rooms are equipped with a PC.
If your presentation was created on a Macintosh, you must save it to run on a PC. Please test it before coming to the meeting and again in the Speaker Ready Room. If you have any questions on this, please contact Nancy Wright, .
If your presentation includes embedded video, please convert any .mov files to .avi format, or create a link in your slide show to an external .mov file. If you choose the latter, your animation will play in a separate QuickTime window, outside of your PowerPoint presentation.
The decision by the Joint Technical Program organizers to place your paper in an oral session is final.
