Questions? Contact Caitlin Simpson at Society@biophysics.org. Call for New and Notable SymposiumSpeakers The Biophysical Society is seeking suggestions from Soci- ety members for speakers to be featured in the annual New and Notable Symposium in San Francisco. This symposium is unique in that, through a series of brief talks, attendees hear about late-breaking and exciting science. Unlike other symposia, which were planned at least nine months prior to the meeting, the New and Notable Symposium program is not finalized until December. If you have a colleague who should be considered, visit www.surveymonkey.com/r/DYQJ3L2 and complete the required information by December 2, 2021.
