Take a look 👀 at the titles and descriptions of all of our talks now that we have finalized the schedule. Note that we offer both "in person" and "zoom" options for all our talks, AND if you sign up for a talk, you will receive a link a few days after the talk to watch a recording at your leisure. So if you miss seeing it live or by zoom due to circumstances, you can watch it later, or simply review it a second time.
