both tracks. We will use your feedback and experience at Karlsruhe to
help us fine-tune our new conference for events in 2019 and beyond. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Please see the introduction on the event web page linked above for a fuller description of what the event will look lie. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The <b class="">schedule</b> for the four days is available on the event web page at <a href="http://www.calconnect.org/events/calconnect-xliii-september-2018#conference-schedule" class="">http://www.calconnect.org/events/calconnect-xliii-september-2018#conference-schedule</a>.
