Message from the Chair: 2022 DPS Meeting in London, Ontario, Canada is Hybrid

The DPS Committee has decided to conduct the 2022 London meeting (October 2-7) as a hybrid meeting permitting both in person and remote participation.  We plan to build on the last two successful DPS Virtual meetings to develop a hybrid meeting model that makes content equally available to those attending in-person and remotely to the extent possible.  Specific details of the hybrid meeting format are still being worked out. A Virtual Organizing Committee (VOC) is being formed to augment the current Local and Scientific Organizing Committees. We will continue to monitor the status of the pandemic and will remain adaptable to changes as necessary to ensure the health of all attendees. DPS meeting COVID-19 safety measures will follow US, Canadian, and local public health regulations and recommendations. Entry into Canada presently requires proof of vaccination. The DPS is also standing up a subcommittee to work out the longer-term vision of how DPS meetings will evolve in the future to support the needs of the community.
