Again this year you have the ability to interact live with one of the scheduled presentations.  Once you have read the schedule and know which session you would like to interact with, go to the "register" link and complete the form. You will be asked to make your selection for an interactive seat towards the end of the registration form.  When you have completed all fields click the "Submit" button.  You should then receive an email confirmation. 

NOTE: If you already registered and would like to sign up to be an ineractive for another presentation (or if you are presenting and would like to update your title or abstract) you can do so by using the email and password you used to register originally to log back in and select your interactive session (or update your presentation information). Don't forget to click "submit" when done. If you have experience any difficulty in signing up for an interactive seat, please let us know.
