Topics & Speakers

The FASR 2021 workshop will feature a series of invited plenary presentations (no breakout sessions), which are intended to seed open discussions on topics relevant to FASR science and technology. If you also wish to contribute to these open discussions, please provide a title and a short description of your proposed presentation or topic at the time of your registration. The SOC will review all proposals and selectively include them in the program in the limited time slots available for this purpose. If the SOC is unable to provide a time for an extended discussion of your contribution there will also be a poster session.
