There are different registration levels, depending on your career stage and your organization's for-profit status, and how early you register. Our goal has been to make this an *absurdly affordable* conference for students and postdocs, and *downright affordable* for everyone else.| Conference Only | Conference + Training Day | ||||||

Lodging
You may also arrange your lodging when registering. There are two official lodging options:
- On the UIC Campus at James Stuckel Towers. This option must be booked at the same time as you register. The James Stuckel Towers are now sold out.
- At the Crowne Plaza Chicago Metro Downtown. This option ends July 23, or when rooms fill up.
There are a limited number of rooms in each. You are encouraged to register/reserve early.
