Biophysical Society TV
The Biophysical Society is partnering with
the international film and broadcasting
company, WebsEdge, to bring Biophysical
Society TV to the 58
th
Annual Meeting! Bio-
physical Society TV will be an onsite Annual
Meeting television channel featuring new
episodes daily, screened around the venue, as
well as on a dedicated television channel in
selected guest hotel rooms and online. This
venture serves to raise the visibility of the im-
portant work of biophysicists and to provide
an opportunity to learn about cutting-edge
research and developments that are advanc-
ing biophysics.
Each daily program has two features:
“Thought Leadership” and “Annual Meeting
News.” Thought Leadership pieces are five-
minute sponsored film segments highlight-
ing major programs and activities underway
in the field. Annual Meeting News is a daily
program of meeting highlights, featuring
“behind the scenes” interviews, coverage of
meeting events, and reactions to the day’s
events from attendees.
