Underline offers a highly customizable and interactive online video platform, where you can find the best lectures, presentations and discussions from the most important conferences in your field. Viewers can then engage with conference materials from wherever they want, whenever they want. Conferences play a significant role in the advancement of science. They connect like minds, facilitate networking opportunities, reveal the latest research in the subject, and provide opportunities to develop new skills. But they present challenges. They can be expensive, present scheduling challenges, be in a different language and all the discussions end with the conferences. Our Mission is to digitize scientific conference information and make it globally accessible and useful.
