IASA 50th Conference Committees

The Executive Board is happy to announce that we have assembled a great group of people to organize our conference through the Planning and Programme Committees. The Programme Committee will report to the Planning Committee. Zane Grosa, IASA VP of Conferences, will oversee all conference matters. The Programme Committee will be co-chaired by Pio Pellizzari and Tre Berney. I trust that these committees will afford and create a forward-thinking conference that aligns with the spirit of inclusion. This is what IASA looks like.
