- Following review, proposals may be combined, and not all suggested speakers may be included in the final session format.
- WSPID is committed to ensuring a balanced program in terms of gender and geography, adhering to the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We encourage proposals that support these objectives and welcome submissions featuring early-career speakers.
