2021 Virtual Conference Sessions - viewing the recordings on Whova
The conference recordings from the 2021 VMN Virtual Conference are available to you until March 31, 2022. Please note that, in order to make the videos available as quickly as possible, we have published them with the un-edited captions. We are in the process of having the videos professionally captioned, and we expect that to be done in about one week.

Another Route:
Instead of navigating to the session page, look for “Resources” in the left-hand column and click the drop-down menu. You’ll see “Video Gallery” there, which will show you a grouping of all 22 videos!

Accessing Recorded Conference Content in Whova as a Conference Registrant:
- Log on to Whova by going to https://whova.com/portal/webapp/vmnsc_202110/sign_in/ and using your email address and the password you created.
- Navigate to Sessions, under Agenda in the left-hand column.
- Use the search bar or click on the correct day to locate the session of interest. Click “View Session”.
- On the session page, look for the link to “Watch the recorded video here.”, just above the presenter’s name.
- Further down the page, you will find any accompanying handouts that the presenter wanted to share with you.
- Remember that there are seven, on-demand bonus sessions that were only pre-recorded content! Those are listed under Sunday’s agenda, so be sure to check them out.
- For the four sessions that combined pre-recorded content and a live discussion, we have posted the pre-recorded portion as a subsession. Follow the same directions to navigate to the session, and then look for the subsession with the pre-recorded content on that page. It’s best if you watch the pre-recorded portion before the recording of the live discussion.
