Meeting Guide

Conference Platform

CVC will be held entirely on the virtual conference platform Remo. 

Watch the Remo Virtual Platform Tutorial! This 4-minute tutorial goes over how to set up your profile, participate in networking and networking sessions (called Conversation mode in Remo) and watch and ask questions during live talks (called Presentation mode in Remo).  

Learn how to Perform a Systems Check, select the optimal Devices and Operating Systems, or  use a VPN.

Note that Chrome and Edge tend to perform best, and Firefox does not support virtual backgrounds.

Due to increased security and permissions safeguards with macOS 10.14 Mojave and 10.15 Catalina, you may need to adjust your Security & Privacy settings to enable screen sharing.

Oral Presentations

• Speakers: All oral talks will be given live. Please check the Technical Program tab above for your scheduled presentation time, and add the whole Block to your calendar to view the Block in your own time zone. The presentations should be in Powerpoint or PDF format (for other formats please check first), and the speaker will share and advance their own slides. The presentation experience is similar to Zoom, Webex or other familiar video conference platforms. A training session will be scheduled 2 weeks before the conference.
• Audience: Attendees will watch talks live, and ask questions via general chat and Q&A (can be anonymous), with the ability to upvote others' questions and react via emojis.

Table Presentations

Networking Sessions

• Format: The Networking Sessions will run in a fully live virtual format in 2 distinct sessions on October 14^th and 15^th.
• Your table: During the live networking sessions, each presenter will be designated a table (by Table number) – find your table at the start of your networking session and upload your table to the Whiteboard for visitors to be able to view. There is no specific format for the table layout, as visitors will be able to zoom in for details. You can show you table in PDF or PPT; if you save your PPT as a PDF the quality might diminish, so the original PPT might be best.
• Interacting: At each table, up to 7 attendees can visit at a time (cameras and microphones enabled!) throughout the networking sessions just like an in-person networking session, to discuss and ask questions. You will be able to share your screen to display details of your prepared poster PDF or the short video of your elevator pitch, or simply turn on your camera to have a chat with your visitors.
