How do I access the event platform during the days of the conference?
You may use your mobile or computer to access the event page. Once you have registered for the conference, go to https://whova.com/portal/webapp/stemc_202104/ to access the Whova event site. Click “Sign up here” if you don’t have an account yet and fill in your email and password. Make sure to use the email address you used when registering for the event!

What web browser should I use?
As the event will have live streaming for sessions, we suggest that you use Chrome browser for the web app. Some streaming software may have compatibility issues with other browsers.
Will I be able to contact and network with other attendees during the conference?
If you have chosen to be included in the attendee list, yes! Be sure to edit your profile and information after gaining access to the Whova platform. We will be having a networking happy hour on both days of the conference with subsessions for various topics of interest. Attendees will also be able to view profiles and send messages to each other. With 1-1 video calls, attendees can also make plans to further connections by talking face-to-face just like they would with someone they met at an event in-person. Video chat is easy — just start a conversation, request permission to call, and then chat at a time that works for both of you.
