The ASLO Zoom Virtual Awards Reception will take place on Tuesday, December 1 from 12:00 – 1:00 pm US EST.
ASLO Awards Chair Amina Pollard will introduce each of the awardees with a brief summary of their achievements. The award talks they would have presented in Madison are being pre-recorded and will be posted on our YouTube channel prior to the event for you to watch at your leisure (the two talks from OSM are already posted). Following the group introduction, there will be breakout rooms for each award winner for some informal networking time.
