Planning Group will provide assistance and guidance in drafting the proposal. We would like to have potential topics by
<b>Tuesday, October 10th, 2023</b>. The Program Planning Group will then decide which topics to pursue and will reach out to presenters to begin drafting proposals for eventual submission to the RBMS 2024 Conference.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
