Instead, I spent my time and energy on a submission to a different conference - online, free to registrants, and with a higher rate of LMIC participation btw. And guess what: it was great! I got everything you want from a conference: networking, kudos and feedback on my work, insights into new and in-progress work in the field, with a more diverse community.</p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/medlibs" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>medlibs</span></a></span> <a href="https://social.esmarconf.org/tags/medlibs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>medlibs</span></a> <a href="https://social.esmarconf.org/tags/datalibs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>datalibs</span></a></p>
