Being able to hop from talk to talk to being with my family is incredible. I'm not giving this up ever. Not that my academic status would ever get me invited as a speaker, but an irreversible shift occurred, so this is a kind of ceiling that must be shattered as well.
.@TheSIAMNews wants to reassert tradition when pandemic is over! Forcing everyone to travel that is also terrible for the planet. I told them their stance of not allowing virtual speakers is especially discriminatory against women who tend to not be able to travel.pic.twitter.com/PBV73CvOPf

Hi Anima and all: Actually, this is not the case. SIAM is in fact in the process of reviewing conference formats and policies related to presentation and participation. Cheers, Margot (chair, SIAM board)

Indeed SIAM is actively working to review our conference formats and policies. We're looking forward to incorporating what we have learned over this past year to best serve the community.

Thank you so much! I hope we can make in person meetings optional in future. I do miss them. But it should not be forced upon everyone. A limited amount of travel is better for everyone including the planet.
