Badge Beacons
A small, battery-powered wireless device will be attached to your badge. This device is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon that communicates with sensors placed throughout the venue. Although the device is synced with your registration ID, it contains no personal information. AAPM cannot track your movements outside of designated session rooms and the exhibit hall. The data we receive allows us to confirm attendance at SAMs sessions (for those who register for SAMs), as well as to see overall traffic trends which helps us in future planning.
All SAM registrants are required to use a beacon for attendee verification in sessions.
Cancellations
Fees for registration will be refunded in full if written notice of cancellation is received by July 2, 2018.

No problem. The sessions are open to all registered scientific attendees.
