<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">IAU Symposium 368: Machine Learning in Astronomy: Possibilities and Pitfalls will take place from Aug 2 (Tue) to Aug 4 (Thu), 2022, in Busan, Republic of Korea. The intent of the meeting is to
promote best practices for leveraging machine learning in astronomy research. We will have reviews, panel discussion, tutorials, and various opportunities for discussions, along with the usual talks and posters. The symposium is part of the 31st IAU General
Assembly (Aug 2-11, 2022).</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">We would like to invite you to the conference. There are many slots available for contributed talks. Posters are also welcome. Attendees will need to register online for an “in-person” slot (even
if you wish to attend virtually). As per the current status, only up to 20% speakers can be remote. The IAU will decide on possibly 50% speakers being remote, or on fully hybrid mode in May depending on the situation. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
