Abstract Day Challenges
I have an abbreviated post today because I am in the process of trying to submit two abstracts to a talk in NOVEMBER that are due. Normally, this is a piece of cake and I have done it countless times. But, the conference rules of this science meeting have changed, and before an abstract can be submitted, all co-authors need to establish and electronic identity in the conference electronic gizmo site.....even if they are NOT going to this meeting. This was a very NEW issue.... and I am scrambling trying to get a lot of folks to make this identity in the conference site so that I may actually list them as a co-author.
So, not the post I had planned..... but this is the post I can do,today.
This took me by surprise as in the close to 40 years I have been involved with this conference, this was never needed previously.
Oh well..... nothing stays the same, I guess.....no matter how much more convenient it would be.

I have to admit, Professor, that when I first saw the title of your post I thought you were going to tell us about your day's challenges that weren't as concrete as so many others you have shared.
So, never mind. :-) Perhaps this new academic verification procedure has something to do with the increasing ease of AI-related fakery?
Jumping through hoops is what it sounds like. There are so many of them in education.
Da roolze change inconveniently.
