Scientific sessions will begin on the morning of Wednesday June 25 in the New Residence Hall adjacent to the McGill campus in downtown Montreal. Sessions will conclude at noon on Friday June 27. New this year will be free activities specifically targeted to junior scientists including an Early Career Investigator Lunch & Learn Session and a Networking Social. 

An optional Networking Event at the famed Cirque du Soleil has been organized for Wednesday evening June 25.
