This year's SSI program will be conducted as online lectures on ZOOM with meetings going live each day at 9AM Pacific Daylight Time. The program is run in conjunction with the Indico time table hosting lecture slides, video recording and Q&A exchange. Registered participants will receive through E-mail the ZOOM webinar connection for lectures and poster session ZOOM link just before SSI begins. Due to the large participating crowd, the lectures will be run in ZOOM webinar mode with the general attendee's microphone and camera off, and cannot be activated. When the webinar is live, you will have access to the Chat feature.  Please use Chat if you have any operational questions. If you think your question is of general interest to other attendees, please feel free to raise the question to All panelists and All attendees. Scientific questions to the speaker should be entered using the “Submit Questions” link under each lecture in the Indico time table. Further information on submitting questions are given in the Q&A Time page. The lectures will be recorded but ZOOM backstage proessing needs several hours to package it for release so the videos from the morning lectures will be available typically in the afternoon, as part of the material for that lecture in Indico time table. ZOOM instructions for speakers are documented at the speaker info page. Poster sessions have a separate ZOOM link where all participant can control their own microphone and camera. Further ZOOM operation details for poster session can be found on the poster session web page.

If you are new to Zoom, please test out your connection in advance of the meeting to ensure your computer is setup to show the video and audio stream.
