Connect and collaborate with attendees from around the world at the virtual component of the APS Global Physics Summit.
Attend the virtual APS Global Physics Summit to learn from the comfort of your home or office. The virtual experience includes select live-streamed sessions from the on-site event daily, virtual-only sessions across all disciplines, ePoster sessions, and online networking opportunities. International attendees will also gather at satellite locations worldwide to attend the virtual APS Global Physics Summit. Plus, in-person attendees have access to all virtual components and post-meeting on-demand content.
Why attend virtually?
Life is complex, but attending the APS Global Physics Summit doesn’t have to be. The virtual experience of the APS Global Physics Summit, March 16-21, is available for scientists from around the globe who need the accessibility and convenience of learning and presenting online. While attending virtually is a different experience from the in-person meeting, presenters and attendees will enjoy select live-streamed sessions from Anaheim all week, plus virtual-only presentations across all disciplines.
Please note that to present virtually, you must select the “Virtual (Online)” presentation method as part of your abstract submission. View the APS abstract submission policies for more information.
Benefits of attending virtually
The virtual program will be tailored to attendees and presenters who require flexibility in their schedules and enjoy the accessibility of digital learning. From March 16 - 21, virtual attendees will experience:
- Select, live-streamed talks from Anaheim each day, including Kavli Foundation Special Symposiums, the Special Session featuring Nobel Laureates, and plenary sessions
- Live, virtual presentations, including focus topic sessions and contributed talks, with real-time interaction between in-person and virtual attendees
- Virtual poster sessions, in which poster submitters will give brief reviews of their posters and answer questions
- On-demand access to in-person and virtual recorded presentations as well as ePosters for 90 days after the meeting
- Exhibitor and career resources
