Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update - New Virtual Meeting Components!
We’re adding virtual options to our in-person meeting to ensure that valuable WBC 2020 content can be accessed by all registrants and presented by all speakers regardless of their ability to travel to Minneapolis in August. We will be prepared to host the meeting entirely virtually if needed. Stay tuned for details!
WBC 2020 is committed to your health, safety and well-being. We regularly update this site with any adjustments that need to be made based on evolving international, federal, state, and local guidelines. All speakers, poster presenters, exhibitors and registrants will also be contacted directly with any key changes to this meeting.
While there are currently no federal restrictions in place to prevent meetings or travel within the United States, we recommend that you refrain from booking non-refundable travel at this time. Please refer to the CDC and World Health Organization websites for the most up-to-date information on COVID-19.
Registration opens soon. We look forward to seeing you at WBC 2020!
