Washington State University in Pullman offers a beautiful summer setting for a conference, combining the energy of a vibrant campus with the charm of the surrounding Palouse region. Warm, sunny days highlight the rolling hills of wheat fields that create one of the most picturesque landscapes in the Pacific Northwest. Attendees can enjoy strolls through WSU’s scenic campus, visit the renowned Bear Center or the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, and experience the lively downtown Pullman with its local shops and eateries. Just beyond Pullman, opportunities abound for outdoor recreation, from hiking and biking trails to nearby rivers and lakes, making it an ideal destination where academic engagement meets the natural beauty and hospitality of Eastern Washington. There will be short courses, a plenary lecture, invited and contributed sessions, young investigator events, and a Student Paper Award with oral sessions.
