It's not too late to join us for #SEJ2016 in Sacramento, California, hosted by Capital Public Radio and UC Davis. Walk-ins on site are  welcome, though some ticketed events and tours may be sold out. Peruse the draft agenda, book your room, find a roommate or carpool companions (SEJ members only), read speaker bios. To find attendees, facilitate networking, keep abreast of agenda updates and more, download the Whova app.

Attendees are in the field on Thursday, at one of nine all-day tours. (Image: The Mussel Point is launched in Bodega Bay. Photo courtesy of UC Davis.) Afterwards are the ever-popular independent hospitality receptions and exhibitor sneak peek. Following Friday's sessions and networking happy hour, we'll go out on the town for beat dinners.

Saturday has concurrent sessions, a technology lunch plenary and afternoon mini-tours. Don't miss the Saturday night party!! We'll begin at UC Davis’ Robert Mondavi Institute for Wine and Food Science for wine and beer, olive oil, honey, tomato and other tastings and tales of innovative food research. Dinner will be in the nearby Good Life Garden. Following dinner, attendees will have a choice of a dance party (entertainment by climate rapper Baba Brinkman, pictured, followed by our band for the evening, One Sharp Mind, whose guitarist is a retired biology professor) or a taping of the public radio show "Science Friday." Pre-registration and $35 fee required. Missed signing up for the party or show taping?  You can add this event to your registration on site, as long as tickets last.
