Goodbye IMS2020, today was the final day of IMS2020. It was about 9 years ago when we first got serious about proposing downtown Los Angeles for IMS2020. Years of planning went into our symposium. This evening the IMS2020 Virtual Webpage will be turned off. Thank you Tim, Elsie, Amanda, Lee Wood, Sue Horn, and the organizing and technical program committees. A lot of hard work! You did a great job!
