Conference LogoIt’s time for inspiration, connection, and discovery, and STAT is thoughtfully moving forward with plans to offer an in-person experience this November. Additionally, a Virtual CAST is scheduled for February 2022 and will feature selected content from the in-person event. CAST registration will include access to the virtual event, and a separate registration option for just the virtual event will later be available.

With health and safety being the highest priority and in response to changing circumstances, STAT may need to adapt programming and/or implement requirements to participate in the in-person event. This may include one or more of the following: masks, social distancing, capacity limits, and/or vaccination/negative test results.

Changes in programming or safety guidelines will be communicated regularly, and flexible options for cancelling or transferring registration to the virtual event will be available.
