Hi everyone,

This is a final note and reminder about the Straw Scene symposium on Monday the 17th.

As you know, we have had to switch venues twice – hopefully, this email will catch any who might have missed our final update on the location. Correct information is pasted below, and the final program is attached (also available at the link below). If you share details about the symposium on your networks, please also use this information or the poster (also attached!).

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding the program, location, or venue.

Warmly,
Hui Wong
