Once registered, you
can watch the event live, or if you have other commitments on those dates, you
can view the sessions as many times as you want for ninety days following the
conference (through 10 August 2014). NGS has selected PlayBackNow to broadcast
the live sessions and to provide the recorded sessions for later viewing.
Instructions for viewing the live streaming will be sent to registrants before
6 May 2014.
For those fortunate
enough to be able to attend the conference in person and chose from ten tracks
and more than 175 lectures over four days, a reminder that the discounted Early
Bird registration will close on 24 March 2014. Conference attendees may also
benefit from NGS live streaming by registering to the view either track or the
bundled package, which they will be able to view after they return home. By
selecting different lecture presentations to hear live at the conference, they
can expand their overall conference experience.
