Please note our social media policy:

As Twitter has become an increasingly popular means of exchanging information, some conference participants have begun tweeting presentations to their followers.  Please obtain the presenter’s prior approval before distributing photos of the slides from any presentation.  In some cases, presentations have been approved by data providers or other third parties only for the NEUDC audience, and tweeting the slides could imperil the researcher’s relationship with one or more research partners.
