COVID-19 Considerations

Updated as of July 14, 2022 

 

We will follow all required federal, state, and local guidelines to make sure the meeting is as safe as possible. The organizing committee, in coordination with NSF program officers, will carefully monitor the situation and adjust recommended safety precautions as necessary based on the latest information. 

 

In order to promote a safe environment for meeting participants, we will implement the following health and safety measures: 

  • Require participants to wear masks while in meeting spaces (other than while eating/drinking) 
  • Provide hand sanitizer and surgical masks for all participants (welcome to bring your own from home) 
  • Offer designated spaces for taking meals/breaks to accommodate different comfort levels of congregating and consuming while unmasked 

 

All participants should monitor their own health status each morning before the meeting as well as during the meeting. Should you not feel well, please remain in/return to your hotel room. 

 

If you experience symptoms associated with COVID-19, consider taking a self-test and/or visiting a nearby testing site. Anyone testing positive should refrain from re-entering the meeting space for the duration of the meeting and follow CDC guidance regarding care, isolating, and contact tracing. We will have a limited amount of self-tests available on-site.
