LISA Lab Schedule

It's common that questions and comments linger after talks, presentations, panels, workshops, and tutorials presented at conferences. Schedules are tight and it's nearly impossible for speakers to address everything on every attendee's mind..

Have no fear; LISA Office Hours are here! In 2014, we will be implementing Office Hours in the LISA Lab so that speakers and attendees can connect after the presentation to get those burning questions answered. Be sure to check out the schedule below to see when your favorite presenter will be hanging out in the Lab and head on over for a chat!
