To register for one or both of the meetings, please follow the links above. Registration for both meetings is free. Note that space at the second meeting is very limited and to register for the second meeting only you must “request an invitation” (this is standard Royal Society protocol for the “satellite meetings” that follow the more general meetings). If more people request to attend than can be accommodated, conference organizers will select participants based on the relevance of an individual’s ongoing or past work to the area of infectious disease forecasting, while also striving to maintain a diverse balance of attendees.
