The summaries are part summary and part paraphrased transcription as this was the most expedient way to put them together in order to rapidly disseminate this critical information.
They should not be considered a replacement for the talks themselves. The formatting may be inconsistent and the entirety of the content should be attributed to the speakers, though any errors, stylistic or otherwise, should be attributed to us.
The videos are available on the National Academies website and we have numbered the titles in accordance with video number. Some numbers are skipped when it is a very brief introduction or transition. Content from the 1st of the 2 days is now available here.
