Submitter and presenter responsibilities
All presenters are required to register for the conference and pay the appropriate registration fee. (Selected presenters will receive a discounted conference registration fee.) Registration will not be waived for presenters unless a presenter is coming to present and leave immediately after. Travel, per diem and other associated costs are the responsibility of each presenter.

- Notify presenters of proposal acceptance
- Contact presenters to confirm their participation
- Forward session confirmation materials (provided by the Odyssey conference committee) to presenters
- Collect a brief biographical sketch for each presenter
