Tutorials

All tutorials will be virtual on-demand as pre-recorded lectures and PPT slides, to be made available to the registered attendees for a period before and after the conference (detail to be provided soon).

Live interactive sessions are still scheduled on Sunday, October 10. Please see below the sessions sorted by meeting time and by topics. Each session, for up to one hour, will be used for meet/greet and Q&A with the speakers. Attendees are encouraged to preview the lectures/slides and bring any questions. Group and 1-1 meeting opportunities are available. Registered tutorial attendees will access the LIVE virtual meetings via the official conference virtual platform.
