All of the Academy's meetings are open scientific events and welcome all persons who are interested, pay the necessary registration fee, and otherwise conform to the Society’s Bylaws for its meetings. Personal letters of invitation are not necessary to attend FAST conferences and meetings.
FAST does not provide financial support to meeting participants, though it does provide discounted registrations to certain classes of alumni. Airfare, ground transportation, hotel, meals, travel insurance, and any other local expenses are typically the responsibility of each participant.
After you complete the visa application process, use the resources for each conference to register, plan your travel, reserve your hotel room, and obtain scheduling details. To save money and assure you receive proper accommodations, we strongly recommend that you complete your hotel reservations and register for the meeting through FAST before the deadlines. All attendees, including speakers and poster presenters, must register for the meeting in order to participate in the technical sessions, tours or the opening night celebration. Attendees must display their badge at all times in order to be admitted to all official FAST sessions and events.
