Your safety and comfort are our priority. To provide maximum flexibility to match your needs, CHI provides this event as both an in-person and virtual experience. We feel the combination of these two experiences will bring about a truly unique event. This new conference norm will fuse the best of our traditional onsite events with the expanded benefits of a virtual conference. Bringing together the life sciences community is what CHI does, and we look forward to bringing our community together with this new offering.

NEW Flexible Registration Policy – Seamlessly switch between In-person and/or virtual

Select an In-person or virtual option, and you have the flexibility to switch your preferred event experience at any time leading up to the conference. Simply contact us, and we will either charge you the difference for upgrading to in-person or credit back the price for transferring to virtual. Our flexible registration is designed to take the uncertainties out of these uncertain times.
