In the last newsletter I wrote about engaging presentations and revised meeting guidelines. You told us you would like to be better engaged during our meetings and that some presentations seem stale.

At the 2020 Health Physics Society Annual Meeting at National Harbor, Dan Sowers and I will host a special session to spotlight our new meeting guidelines. For the first time we welcome presentations that incorporate interactive pooling along with question-and-answer features. You can also use links (sound still not supported). However, presentations are not required to use those features; they need only to follow the guidelines for Powerpoint slides that keep your audience engaged as you speak.

Would you like to be a part of the official launch of our Society's future meeting success? We seek presentations on any health physics topic. If you would like more information, please contact Mike or Dan. The official call for abstracts has been posted and the deadline is 24 January.
