The chatroom opens to the public at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time and remains open for two hours. Each evening's topic will be introduced in a brief 10 - 15 minute overview, highlighting what is known about the topic in the field. This overview is presented by one of the Center's researchers or by nationally recognized experts invited to discuss the topic with our online guests. Following this introduction, you will be able to join the discussion on the topic with the presenter, Center staff and other people attending the session. The discussion takes place in electronic chatroom form: all participants can make comments and ask or respond to questions by typing their contribution into a box at the bottom of their screen. These comments appear on everyone's screen in the order they are submitted. The presenter introducing each evening's topic may present slides that appear on everyone's screen, to aid understanding of the topic. The discussion will be moderated by our staff members to ensure the discussion flows smoothly and everyone gets ample opportunities to ask questions and make comments.
