I am writing on behalf of the Beyond Sciences Initiative (BSI), founded at the University of Toronto (www.beyondsciences.org). BSI is a not-for-profit network with a mandate to foster academic and personal growth while empowering young scientific leaders to make lasting and influential change within their local and global communities. This is accomplished by:

Bridging the gap in access to academic knowledge through mentorship and trainee exchanges
Increasing cultural understanding among geographically separate communities
Participation in outreach activities within local and international communities

Please help distribute this announcement for the BSI 6th. Annual Remote Conference: Science & Society.

This online conference will take place on February 20th and 21st, 2021. The intent is to have an accessible conference where international scholars will present their research to a broad audience. The conference will be broadcast live and last year we had over 1000 registrants from over 100 countries around the globe.

Conference topics include: infectious diseases, cancer, chronic diseases, biotechnology and bioinformatics.

Once registered (at no cost), participants join the live conference by following the provided Zoom link provided. Presentations are selected from Abstracts submitted by an international committee. Abstract deadline is November 27, 2020. Those not selected for oral presentations will be invited to present a digital poster. Prizes are awarded for the top oral and poster presentations.
