Dear members of the STM Caucus,

 

Below you will find a list of particularly relevant panels that are scheduled for the upcoming ASA meeting, which we have also attached as a PDF for easy downloading. We hope that you find the list useful as you plan your time in Chicago.

 

Please also join us at the annual Business Meeting of the Science, Technology, and Medicine Caucus, which is scheduled for Saturday, November 11, from 10-11:45am, in the Hyatt Regency’s Stetson D (Exhibit Level West Tower). We will discuss possibilities for sponsored panels and social events to be held during the 2018 meeting in Atlanta, as well as other ideas for developing our presence and voice within the ASA.

 

In this vein, you will also see in the schedule below that we have included the annual Business Meeting of the Critical Disability Studies Caucus, with whom we expect to collaborate more actively in the coming years.

 

We look forward to seeing you in Chicago!

Katie, Sarah, & Elena, Executive Liaisons
