Dear CASCA members,
We are excited to welcome you to Toronto for CASCA TO 2024 (https://cascato.ca/), co-hosted by the University of Toronto and York University, and held at the Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel. A block of rooms at the Sheraton is already available (see the accommodations page if you wish to begin planning your trip: https://cascato.ca/accommodation/)
Registration will officially open in a few weeks and closes on June 1(but the early-bird deadline is April 17, 2024). Abstract submission will open shortly, and will close March 28th.
IMPORTANT: The LOC is currently in discussion with a professional childcare service to provide childcare at CASCA. This childcare would be onsite at the Sheraton, so that attendees who have children may drop-off/visit/pick-up their child(ren) as needed during active conference hours. This childcare would be subsidised and provided at low or no additional cost to attendees with children. If you are interested in making use of childcare at CASCA, then please fill out this form (https://bit.ly/CASCA_Childcare) as soon as possible and no later than March 8.
As we start planning the scientific program, please contact the SOC if you would like to recommend/request a special session or town hall. We have already received a few special session and town hall requests. Additional requests for sessions will be considered until March 8. While we will do our best to schedule sessions, please note that it may not be possible to fit in all requested sessions. Please note that in anticipation of the CASCA 2025 midterm review, all town halls will be requested to answer specific questions and submit a short post-meeting report to the CASCA board. These reports will serve as a guide in the 2025 midterm review.
For further details and information, please contact the SOC co-chairs: Prof. Rahul Kannar (kannanr@yorku.ca) and Prof. Josh Speagle (j.speagle@utoronto.ca).
