The 19th Annual Meeting will be held virtually from August 12th-14th, 2020. We will keep our single-track structure that we have always had in SDN (via a single Zoom room for the meeting), and will be replicating the more social catching up of in-person meetings by asking attendees to join a special Slack workspace for the meeting. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

More information about the meeting logistics will be sent to all attendees. The link above for access to the papers is password-protected and the password will be provided to registered participants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What happens at the Annual Meeting?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Annual Meeting provides a forum for presenting sophisticated empirical research on important topics in the contemporary politics of science and technology. These meetings train young professionals, foster dialogue among scholars and policy practitioners from across the globe, and build an improved knowledge base for public policy by highlighting issues of importance to the United States and the global community.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Speakers are expected to submit papers before the meeting, and attendees are expected to read each of these before the sessions where they are discussed. There are no ‘streams’ in SDN, so that everyone can hear all presentations if they so wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In between the paper sessions are Plenary Panels, featuring prominent members of the Network discussing pressing issues of science and democracy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These academic sessions are usually complemented by more social periods, where Network members can catch up with each other and meet new colleagues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Do I need to be a member of the Network to attend?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you do not need to be a member of the Network to attend, it is assumed that attendance means that you are interested in becoming a member. Membership is currently free, as membership is more about being a part of a thought collective rather than paying dues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
