13. What Participants Thought the Strengths of the Scientific Program Were “great interdisciplinary speakers” “I feel well informed about the challenges and future directions in translating SBS research. Also diverse representation from non-CFAR institutions.” “The relatively small size and the multiple panels/all-group sessions were good for networking and hearing multiple perspective. The topic of the day was good to hear from every perspective (government funders, scientists from all fields) Great Conference in General.” “Great for understanding gaps/needs in the field as well as how funders are thinking about them. Very clear structure for research agenda laid out over the course of the presentations.”
