The use of APRES&#8217; reserves to offset any potential financial impact from reduced attendance carried the vote to a virtual format,\u201d President Gary Schwarzlose and Program Chair David Jordan said in a message to society members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting will explore the theme \u201cComplicated and Challenging World Created by Viruses,\u201d and all presentations will be virtual, but live including the breakout sessions, general session, technical symposium and the Joe Sugg Oral Presentation Graduate Student Competition. Poster-presenters will be asked to record and explanation of their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Abstracts will be accepted until April 15. Registration&nbsp;is $250 for APRES members, $25 for students, post docs, and retired members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 53rd American Peanut Research and Education Society Annual Meeting will be virtual, rather than in-person, organizers decided this week.
