In-Person Meeting Attendance

*The PRIMR24 Workshops are an additional fee and require pre-registration.

2. Is there a virtual meeting option?
Yes. PRIM&R is offering a virtual meeting for those who are unable to attend in person. This is flat package that includes all content from November 18-20 (PRIMR24 Workshops are in-person only); access to an ePoster Gallery that includes posters, abstracts, and 10-minute recorded talks; exhibitors information; and the attendee list. Given the way our platform is set up, we are not offering group registrations; each person viewing content must be registered so they can be uniquely identified in the system. More FAQs about the virtual meeting are below.

3. Can I register for both the in-person and virtual conferences?
Attendees can attend the PRIMR24 Workshops and the PRIMR24 Virtual Meeting on November 18-20. Attendees only interested in PRIMR24 must select either an in-person or virtual registration option. In-person attendees will have access to any session recorded on-site. Recordings will be available for up to 90 days after the conclusion of the conference.

4. When does registration close?
In-person registration will close on November 15. Virtual Meeting registration will remain open throughout the event. 

5. Do I receive access to session recordings as part of my in-person registration?

6. Are the PRIMR24 Workshops included in my PRIMR24 registration?
No. The PRIMR24 Workshops offered on November 17 are not included with registration for PRIMR24. These offerings are an additional fee and advanced registration is required.

Virtual meeting registrants can also favorite sessions, but it's not required.
