- Find out if your institution is a CSRDE member. If so, you qualify for the members’ registration rate. You may still join as an institutional or individual member to qualify for the reduced rate.
- Email us if you have questions.
- Make sure to register with the correct email address for the conference attendee. This will be used for all correspondence about NSSR.
- Hotel Reservations: The special rate for NSSR attendees is $138 per night, plus tax. You must make your reservations using the link on our hotel page to receive this rate. Deadline for reservations is September 30, 2025 OR when all group rooms have been allocated, whichever comes first. Reservations at the conference rate after this time will be based on availability.
ALERT: If you are contacted by any agency offering you a lower room rate than the one listed above, or offering to make your reservations for you, it may be a scam. Please note that NSSR has not authorized any such offers. Hotel reservations should only be made using the link on our hotel webpage.
Conference Schedule: Presenters are required to submit a paper for peer-review before being invited to present at the conference. Due to the time needed to complete this process, the final conference schedule will not be available until August. Our tentative schedule may be found here.
