Ahh, this turned out beautifully. I was kinda surprised when I heard it was going to be an 8x2 mosaic, but wow, I'm so happy they went for it!

love paying 75% of the in-person registration to get like 20% of the networking benefits

I'm not really sure what happened. Really sucks though - there are myriad issues with the virtual poster session, and it's frustrating to see barriers put up against people trying to communicate their science where the eyeballs are in any way they can.

I'd definitely be interested to chat at some point, but unfortunately already have plans for tomorrow night (got tickets to an orchid show at the botanical gardens)

I believe the setup on his end is a tablet connected to a hotspot set up on a stand in the poster hall, and I'll do a video call in through google meet. Not sure if it'll work, but we thought it was worth giving it a shot
