If you have a disability (including but not limited to vision, mobility, hearing, physical or other health-related), require communication access services for the deaf or hard of hearing, or believe that you require a reasonable accommodation for another reason, we ask that you register by
June 15, 2024, so APS can clarify, secure, and confirm necessary services or materials. If you are unable to register by this date but intend to register, or if you have questions about accessibility at the event, please contact APS meetings as soon as possible.
Attendees From Outside the United States
Attendees are encouraged to apply for a visa as soon as you are confident you will attend Plant Health 2024. Some consulates may have backlogs in scheduling visa interviews, so applicants should contact the consulate directly to determine
wait times or visit the
U.S. Visa website.
Do not wait until you receive notification that your abstract submission has been accepted before applying for a visa. If your abstract presents new information and follows the published rules and guidelines, it will most likely be accepted or accepted with revisions.
Customized visa invitation letters can only be issued to confirmed registrants including those who have paid the meeting registration fees), have submitted an abstract, or are otherwise presenting. When you register for the meeting, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to auto-generate a customized visa invitation letter. If you are unable to register early enough to begin the visa process and have submitted an abstract, please complete the
invitation letter request form. Invitation letters generated using the request form are identical to the letters created when registering, however they are manually created and may take up to 5 business days to be processed.
All applicants must be able to qualify for a visa on their own merits. APS cannot intervene with embassies in other countries on behalf of any meeting participants. If you require an invitation letter prior to registering or if you have additional questions, please contact the
APS Registration Desk. Expected Behavior Policy
We are dedicated to providing a harassment-free meeting experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. We ask all attendees, exhibitors, speakers, sponsors, volunteers, guests and other participants be considerate and respectful to all members and refrain from demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behavior and speech. Please note, if you register a guest for the conference, you may be held responsible for the actions of the guest. Violations of this policy should be reported to meeting staff.
APS reserve the right to remove any individual from attendance or other participation in any APS sponsored event without prior warning or refund, and to take additional action as determined necessary, up to and including expulsion from participation in APS. Any course of action recommended by APS is final.
APS is working with SocialOffset
APS has partnered with
SocialOffset.org to offer meeting attendees the opportunity to contribute to local organizations in Memphis that make a difference in people’s lives. Aligning with the value statement of APS, we want to positively impact the cities in which we hold our meetings. As such, we want to believe that when Plant Health 2024 is over, we will be leaving Memphis better than we found it. To do this, APS has worked with SocialOffset to select three vetted charities that align with the values of the society.
