To be determined.
Video Presentation
Each presentation in this symposium will have two parts: a recorded video of about 45 minutes, and a live webinar of about an hour. Each speaker will record a video of their talk, which will be posted a week or two before the live webinar. At the live event, the presenter will give a brief recap of the highlights of the video, but most of the time will be reserved for discussion and questions from the audience. We therefore encourage symposium participants to watch the videos before the live events.
Ben Marwick's video presentation will be available soon.
