Dear All,

We are excited to announce that the submissions are now open for useR! 2021, the international R user conference!

I have been working with the UseR! 2021 organizers in hopes of bringing a new level of accessibility to the conference. We are requiring that presenters adhere to accessibility standards that include providing slides in advance (preferably in Markup), including alt text, and other measures. 

On behalf of the useR! Diversity Committee,

Liz
