ISAR-7 / Seventh International Symposium on Arctic Research / 第7回 国際北極研究シンポジウム
As of November 17, 2022
Guide for ISAR-7 participants in hybrid (on-site and online) format
For all participants
- The seventh meeting of ISAR will be the first hybrid-format meeting ever in ISAR history. A hybrid format of ISAR-7 would allow for broader access from worldwide.
- The registration fee is the same regardless of whether you attend on-site or online. However, all participants must register their participation method (on-site or online) when they register for the ISAR-7. Participants can change their participation method by February 6 via the registration site on the ISAR-7 website. Participants can participate both on-site and online. Please register as "on-site" if the participants will be at the on-site venue for even one day during the symposium.
- Online participants can attend the Plenary Sessions, Breakout Sessions, and Poster Sessions Core time using ZOOM in real time.
- Poster sessions will be held online twice during the symposium to account for time differences.
- Poster presenters who participate on-site may also display their posters at the venue, where a dues-paying icebreaker* will be held concurrently on March 7. It will be an excellent opportunity to communicate directly with many researchers!!
*Icebreaker may not be held depending on the COVID-19 situation. - The online meeting participation site of ISAR-7 will be opened in late February. This site will include poster displays, online session rooms, programs, abstracts, and booth exhibits. The Secretariat will inform each participant of the ID/password to use the online meeting site as soon as it is ready. On-site participants can also use this site.
