Because the audience for the workshops will be large and more questions generated than Dr. Jennings can address in the allotted time, questions will be curated beforehand.

The deadline for submission is Thursday, Dec 3, at NOON, but it is hoped that those wishing to submit a question will not wait to the last minute to do so
