I moved my publications from Academia to Knowledge Commons. So far I've seen really good engagement there. Check KC out!

Also, be sure to migrate beyond your field of interest/current research. Learn something new! Absolutely introduce yourself to people you would love to meet (either in your field or people you've connected with here).

It is completely normal to jump in/out of sessions to hear individual papers, but do so discreetly! Pack protein bars/water everyday-they will come in handy. Look out for display copy deals in the exhibit hall. Pick up order forms as they have discount codes to order post-conference.

I know! The Nordic and Scottish receptions were by far the best. I was surprised when I didn’t see them on the schedule.

I wondered the same thing about the Nordic reception.

Indeed. Tough choice. I think mine was a bit easier.
