Biophysical Society TV The Biophysical Society is partnering with the international film and broadcasting company, WebsEdge, to bring Biophysical Society TV to the 58 th Annual Meeting! Bio- physical Society TV will be an onsite Annual Meeting television channel featuring new episodes daily, screened around the venue, as well as on a dedicated television channel in selected guest hotel rooms and online. This venture serves to raise the visibility of the im- portant work of biophysicists and to provide an opportunity to learn about cutting-edge research and developments that are advanc- ing biophysics. Each daily program has two features: “Thought Leadership” and “Annual Meeting News.” Thought Leadership pieces are five- minute sponsored film segments highlight- ing major programs and activities underway in the field. Annual Meeting News is a daily program of meeting highlights, featuring “behind the scenes” interviews, coverage of meeting events, and reactions to the day’s events from attendees.
