Complete System Self-Check | Test the video chat system that will be used for your poster session panel discussion. You should test your webcam, microphone, and screenshare any programs you want to share during this discussion.
Conflict of Interest | Because scientific activities are conducted in the public interest, it is important to assure the public that education received by physicians and other health care professionals through whom patient care decisions are made is conducted with the highest integrity, scientific objectivity and in the absence of bias. A conflict of interest exists when individuals have both a relevant financial relationship with a commercial interest and the opportunity to affect the content of the scientific program about the product or services of that commercial interest. SfN collects information from all in control of scientific content and resolves any conflicts prior to the commencement of the scientific activity. The intent of the conflict of interest resolution process is to assure that provider, faculty, planner, and reviewer financial relationships with commercial interest(s) and resultant loyalties do not supersede the public interest in the design and delivery of scientific education activities for learners.
