(https://connect.informs.org/service-science/about-us/about-service-science) We welcome all topics related to the aforementioned mission.

    If you are interested in proposing a session (typically 4-5 abstracts per session), please contact the Cluster Chair Dr. Weiwei Chen (wchen@business.rutgers.edu) by March 18.  Here are the important deadlines:

    • March 18: Deadline for cluster chairs to invite session chairs
