Dear Colleagues,

Conference, taking place in-person at UC Merced from July 8-10! Be sure to
grab a seat soon. The event is open to UC employees and confirmed sponsor
representatives. Once you’ve registered, see below for important resources
to plan your trip.

   about this event, including what’s included in the $300 registration cost,
   who can attend, and how the registration process works.
