   reports on new initiatives

 Proposals should relate to the conference theme.

People’s Choice

New for the RBMS 2020 conference, sessions in the “People’s Choice”
category will be chosen through an online voting process open to all RBMS
members and 2020 meeting attendees. All proposals received by the committee
will be posted for review by the membership in the form it was submitted.
Sessions can take a variety of formats including fully-formed panels,
participatory sessions, or lightning rounds.  Proposals should relate to
the conference theme.

Online voting for People’s Choice sessions will occur between Monday, March
2 – Wednesday, March 11.  All People’s Choice proposals will be posted for
