Description

We present results from our DEI surveys conducted in 2023 and 2024, focusing on whether workshops should be held online or in person. Surprisingly, we find no correlation between diversity criteria and a preference for online conferences, including care responsibilities. The only numerically significant predictors that lead scientists to prefer an online conference, as shown in new survey data from 2024, are VISA waiting times and lack of funding. Improved support for visa acquisition and funding can help improve the possibility of attendance.
