ISTAS20 and PIT-UN Conferences were co-located
virtually [27]. In addition to the vibrant PIT-UN panels
that were enjoyed by all registrants, there were
seven weeks of PIT Colloquia that ran preceding
the 15-week lead up to the ISTAS conference. We
encourage people to view these recordings if they
are considering a PIT career [28]. We also encourage
the formation of organic affinity groups to unite
toward positive social change in society.
