The SIOP Annual Conference has long facilitated the sharing of knowledge and new ideas. To build on that tradition, we are again offering Research Community Forums, an opportunity for individuals with similar interests to connect and experience meaningful research collaboration.

Five Forums will be offered as an add-on conference event the afternoon of Wednesday, April 29, prior to the official start of the SIOP Annual Conference. They will consist of a mix of invited content (e.g., talks or posters identified via the submission process below) and networking/brainstorming activities to generate future research ideas and collaborations.
