General Notes:

The Nelms Women in IoT Workshop will be held as an interactive webinar using Zoom on October 12, 1pm-5pm. The corresponding zoom links are provided in the program below. During the sessions, the attendees can post questions using the Zoom Q&A window

Each student poster session will be held in a different room/zoom link to enable audience members to move between poster sessions.  Abstracts and youtube videos of the student posters can be viewed here:

NOTE AGENDA CHANGE:The Closing Comments will be given at 4pm, followed by the Student Poster Session instead of doing the poster session and then returning from the postersfor the Closing comments. We believe this will allow more time for discussion in the Student Poster Sessions.
