    Special Notes:

    • The Retreat is a half-day conference held as an extension of the 2026 NAA Conference (May 8–9, 2026, University of Pennsylvania).

    • Registration for the Sylvan M. Cohen Retreat and the NAA Conference will be separate.

    • The Retreat is free to attend, but registration is required.

    • Please note: Because this retreat is being held in conjunction with the 2026 NAA Conference, which will feature its own poster presentations, the IOA will not be accepting separate poster submissions for this particular retreat. The Sylvan M. Cohen poster session will resume at the next Sylvan M. Cohen Retreat.
