The SOT Virtual Meeting Experience

Just as no two SOT members are 100% alike, no two Annual Meeting attendees (whether in-person or virtual) have the same expectations or goals.

The Virtual 2021 SOT Annual Meeting and ToxExpo will provide a multitude of experiences.

Experience #1

1,000+ Poster Presentations

With poster authors providing up to eight minutes of audio narrative regarding their research and live Poster Sessions for direct questions and answers
