Getting the most out of the Summit

In the Whova platform, you will find everything you need for the Summit within these menu items:

  • Agenda – This displays all the pre-recorded and live videos.  Simply click on the day and then the session you want to view – if it’s live, you’ll immediately be taken to the live stream, if you’re accessing ahead of the live event, you’ll see the pre-recorded videos available if you scroll down and click “view details” against the specific presentation.
  • Session Q&A – You can ask a question within a live or pre-recorded session, by using the Ask a Question button.  You can also upvote other questions.  All questions will be collated for the panels.  You can also see all questions against each session by using the Session Q&A menu item on the left.
  • Attendees – Here you will see all registered attendees for the event.  You can send messages, which will appear in the Messages menu item – messages sent to you will also appear here.
  • Community – You can create new topics here, or post answers and information against existing topics – we welcome the posting of relevant, targeted topics – such as research papers, new research, public health initiatives in the community and so forth. This is essentially your networking area – you can message attendees and invite them to group chats or set-up a scheduled video call by inserting your zoom link. Please use this function with respect to other attendee’s time and bandwidth, and only set up calls or meetings during networking breaks.

Etiquette

  1. Please be respectful of each other, and of speakers, both when asking questions and when networking. Please use courteous language at all times –the Summit is committed to providing a welcoming environment for informed debate.  Differences of opinion can be communicated, but no personal attacks will be tolerated.
  2. You may use the networking functionality – in the “Community” tab as outlined above – but please do so with consideration to the live timing of the content, and speaker’s and other attendees’ time – you can send other attendees a message but if your message is not responded to, please do not make repeated requests.
  3. We politely request that tobacco industry attendees respect the position of individual academics and public health professionals who may not wish to directly engage with industry.
