Blood and Bone: The quarantine chronicles	2020-06-28		.txt	text/plain	1952	106	61	In this forum, we reflect on a series that allowed global scientists to come together to help shape chaos into an opportunity for community and growth. Using this technology of live information sharing and streaming talks via Zoom and YouTube meant that we were able to reach an even wider audience than a traditional conference; this came with its own particular set of advantages and drawbacks. "Reading" a virtual room can be challenging, but not having audience videos meant that the system was capable of handling large viewing figures (up to 1000), and most talks attracted more attendees and engagement than a traditional conference presentation. Apart from the practicalities of time zones, to increase diversity of both speakers and attendees, conferences must be safe spaces that confront discrimination. Dr Machlus may have had the idea and sent that first email, but it was the hematopoiesis and hemostasis/thrombosis communities that brought the Blood and Bone seminar to life.	./cache/cord-354640-5p79qpok.txt	./txt/cord-354640-5p79qpok.txt
