AAAS, publisher ofScience, thanks the sponsors and supporters

of the 2020 Annual Meeting.

Dear Colleagues:

Scientifc and technological

research have been invaluable

in developing ways of improving life

on Earth. The 2020 AAAS Annual

Meeting theme, Envisioning

Tomorrow’s Earth, considers how

eEorts and advances in science

and technology can respond to the

new challenges faced by society.

On behalf of the AAAS Board of

Directors, I urge you to join us

in Seattle from February 13-16,

2020, where this theme will be

considered from interdisciplinary

scientifc perspectives. The AAAS

Annual Meeting is the premier event

at which you can network with

future collaborators from diEerent

disciplines. We look forward to

seeing you in Seattle.

Join us in Seattle, Washington

Connect with scientific and technology

professionals, policymakers, funders,

educators, students, and members of the

media. Together, explore the many ways that

research and innovation are reacting to the

challenges of the natural and built word:

• Participate in some of the 140+ scientifc sessions in 11
  disciplinary tracks covering advances in research and policy


• Attend workshops aimed at developing your career


• Take advantage of networking opportunities with new and
  familiar collaborators

Face-to-face meetings provide unique and unparalleled

opportunities for engagement and networking that, as of

yet, cannot be re-created virtually. AAAS recognizes the

environmental impact of its and other scientifc gatherings, and

we are constantly examining ways to mitigate this impact. See the

growing list of actions ataaas.org/meetings/ecoe.orts, and send

your own suggestions [email protected].
