Play SciSoc Mtg on PC and Mac

About the Game

The official digital hub for a major trilateral scientific gathering, SciSoc Mtg was designed to enhance the attendee experience for the 2021 International Annual Meeting co-hosted by the ASA, CSSA, and SSSA. Taking place from November 7th through the 10th in Salt Lake City, Utah, with a parallel virtual component, this application acts as a personal conference assistant. It consolidates every critical piece of event information into a single, accessible interface, allowing participants to curate their own journey through the extensive programming.
Upon signing into the application, users gain immediate access to a personalized dashboard where they can manage their curated content. A primary function involves the ability to review and track sessions and individual papers that have previously been marked as favorites. This prevents scheduling conflicts and ensures that high-priority presentations are not overlooked in the dense agenda.
Navigating the physical and temporal layout of the conference is made simple through several integrated tools. The app provides a comprehensive overview of the daily schedules, allowing users to filter by track, date, or society. For those attending in person, the platform delivers detailed venue maps and floor plans, removing the stress of finding lecture halls and poster areas in an unfamiliar convention center. Beyond locations, the application includes a robust people directory, facilitating networking by helping attendees look up speakers, colleagues, and peers.
The hybrid nature of the 2021 meeting meant that the app had to bridge the gap between physical presence and remote participation. The virtual integration allows online attendees to browse the same content and feel connected to the event's rhythm. By placing these resources on a desktop via an emulator, the experience shifts from a passive mobile reference to an active command center.
Key features designed to optimize your meeting workflow include:
A login system that syncs your personalized favorites list, keeping your selected sessions and papers organized in one place for quick recall.
Full schedule browsing capabilities that break down the complex multi-day program into manageable, time-specific segments.
Interactive venue maps and floor plans that provide spatial context for every room, hall, and meeting point within the Salt Lake City venue.
A searchable people directory that helps you identify and locate fellow researchers, presenters, and organizing committee members.
Dual-mode support that accommodates both the in-person audience navigating the physical space and the virtual audience connecting from home.
The interface prioritizes clarity, presenting dense academic data in a format that is easy to parse at a glance between sessions. Whether you are rushing from a keynote to a breakout session or participating from a home office, the layout adapts to provide the most relevant information first. The transition from a small smartphone screen to a PC display via MuMuPlayer significantly amplifies this utility, allowing for side-by-side viewing of the abstract list and the venue map simultaneously.
