If you are unable to attend AIC\u2019s Annual Meeting but would like to submit a tale to be read by one of our organizers or a colleague, please reach out.<\/p>\n<p>Screens to project PowerPoint slides containing your images\/video will be available (16:9 format), and a Dropbox folder will be made available for submissions. Please also bring your presentation on a USB Drive (highly encouraged). Time permitting, audience members inspired by their colleagues will be welcome to present. If appropriate (and acceptable to the speaker), the floor will be opened for questions and discussion following presentations. Extra points for suggesting safeguards and solutions!<\/p>\n<p>Please note that this is a forum for sharing personal mistakes and solutions only.
