Session time allocations (based on four papers): 105 minutes total. 15 minutes per paper presentation plus 5 minutes for the paper’s primary discussant, then time for all other participants’ discussion. The session chair may alter time allocations if appropriate.

Paper Presenters in Organized Sessions
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRESENTERS
If your paper is not appearing on the program as expected, chances are good that either your abstract or registration has not been completed. Paper abstracts in organized sessions need to be submitted by presenters through the conference portal, and will only be available for placement on the program after the presenter is registered for the conference. If your records indicate both steps have been completed but your paper is not appearing as expected, please let us know.
Zoom Links for Virtual Sessions
Links to Zoom meetings for virtual sessions will appear on the online program in mid-June. Make sure that you are able to login on the conference platform prior to your session. Use the same login that was used when you registered for the conference. If you need assistance, please let us know.
