Dear Customer,

The consistent feedback over the years has been that the most valuable aspect of the meetings we organize is when customers share their work and for that reason we are including a ‘customer lightning round’ session to our upcoming community conferences in the US (Boston, May 23-25) and Europe (June 6-9, The Netherlands). To maximize the diversity of the content this session will have a format of short 10-minute presentations about work you have done in the predictive or collaborative sciences areas. Example topics:

• A Pipeline Pilot protocol on a scientific topic
• Extending one of our apps (DS, Insight, Registration, Assay, Notebook, Workbook) to help one of your end-users
• Administrative process or tool that help you in your work
• An interesting scientific finding
• A clever trick with Pipeline Pilot

By keeping these talks short we hope that many people will participate as the preparation should be minimal. Consider either finished work or a ‘progress report’ rather where you talk about something you have been working on recently and want feedback on from others. This session will be very informal and interactive, so a great way to stimulate conversation during the rest of the meeting!
 
To encourage everyone to submit abstracts we are raffling a new GoPro Hero  Session!





Send a title and two-sentence abstract by April 6 to Byron Konold (Byron.KONOLD@3ds.com). This will get you on the program and entered into the raffle.
 
Don’t procrastinate. Let’s make this a great session!
