NADS 2024 Meeting: Program
Three days of meetings will be highlighted by morning and afternoon oral sessions (never concurrent), a dedicated poster session, plenary speakers, the scum run, and a special event to honor the 60th anniversary of the Diatoms class that so many of us have taken. Evening events will include mixers and the NADS auction. The detailed scientific program is available here.
