Meeting-in-a-Meeting submission is closed.
A Meeting-in-a-Meeting (MiM) provides an opportunity at summer national meetings for extended discussion of current space missions and ground-based facilities, major projects, or science topics of current interest. A Meeting-in-a-Meeting comprises a coordinated set of multiple sessions covering a single overall theme, and contributed talks are included in the meeting program. Hybrid or virtual participation is currently not permitted for Meeting-in-a-Meetings. If only a single session is desired, proposers should consider a Special Session or a Splinter Meeting.
