Practitioners, program managers, and S&T leaders are invited to submit brief, high-impact abstracts of technical accomplishments and research-based recommendations relevant to the specific community of interest on which each webinar is focused. Please see below and refer to the side menu for the specific communities of interest and their descriptions.
