Just a couple of quick updates: 1) I resent a confirmation email to everyone this morning. This email comes from Zoom itself and contains the details for joining the meeting- a link and a password. Please check your email- you should have received this information directly from Zoom both at the time you registered and again this morning. 2) If you are unable to join us, we plan to record the meeting. If that recording is successful we will send it out to all participants as soon as it is available, usually within a day or two. 3) If you attempt to join us in the Zoom room, and it has reached the 300 participant limit, or if you prefer to watch online, we will be live streaming the panel through the African Primatological Society's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/African.Primatological.Society/ Thank you again so much for your interest, support, and ideas. We look forward to engaging with you today, and providing more events in the future.

Thank you so much for your support and interest. Upon registration, you should have received an email directly from Zoom with the link and password for attending the event. If you did not receive a confirmation email, please let me know and I will resend it from Zoom. We are very excited about this event. In less than a week, almost 500 people have registered for the panel. We regret that our virtual conference room is limited to 300 participants. Now that we know there is significant interest and demand for virtual webinars and presentations like this one, we are working on some options to address this in planning future events. We will open the Zoom connection at 1:30pm (13:30h) GMT, so please come early to increase your chance of being able to attend the event. The panel will begin at 2pm (14:00h) GMT. If you attempt to join the event, but the space is full, we invite you to email your questions to our moderators (Inza, inza.kone(a)gmail.com; Rachel, r.ashegbofe(a)gmail.com) and we will share them with the rapporteurs. We also plan to record the event and share it with all registrants. Note that there may be some bandwidth and connection issues during the panel. This has been a common experience lately in video conferencing tools due to high demand on networks. Our panelists will be joining us by webcam so you can see them as they speak. We suggest that participants disable their own video, to help conserve bandwidth. Again, thank you so much for taking time to join us for this very important conversation. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow, hearing from you by email if you are unable to join us, or connecting with you at a future event.
