Speaker Ready Room<br />
There will be a Speaker Ready Room located in Room 250 A<br />
on the second level <strong>of</strong> the Salt Palace Convention Center, near<br />
the ASGCT Registration Desk.<br />
All speakers, including oral abstract presenters, must deliver<br />
their presentations to the Speaker Ready Room the day<br />
before their session or at least four hours prior to their<br />
presentations. Equipment is available for faculty to review<br />
their materials. Audiovisual personnel will be available for<br />
assistance. Please mark your materials (your name, session<br />
and speaker order) so the materials can be returned to<br />
you. The <strong>Society</strong> strongly encourages faculty to pre-load<br />
presentations in the Speaker Ready Room; those faculty who<br />
load presentations in the meeting rooms during the sessions<br />
will have that time deducted from their presentation time by<br />
the Chair.<br />
