A conference reception will be held Sept. 25 at the KANEKO Reality Exhibition in downtown Omaha, and is available to all full registration participants. Note: this will serve not only as the conference reception but also the last night for the KANEKO Reality Exhibition.
The mission of the NM&SC is to create a unified national community of individuals and organizations around the modeling and simulation discipline and professional practice – and to promote and leverage modeling and simulation to better the human condition and to strengthen the national well-being.
NM&SC has reduced the registration fee for University of Nebraska/Nebraska Medicine faculty and staff to $100 — this includes meals on both meeting days as well as the reception at KANEKO. University of Nebraska students are invited to attend the conference free of registration charges, excluding meals, but are required to register.
Global industry sponsors supporting the NM&SC National Meeting will be present with displays highlighting their organization and products/services. They include: Karl Storz, CAE Healthcare, AVI-SPL, MultiTaction and EON Reality.
