@biologists.bsky.social hi! I’m having trouble editing my abstract in the abstract submission portal for the Biologist’s 100 conference, as there’s no edit button available. Is there any way to fix this before the deadline later today?

just finished my first meeting as phd representative on the BSCB committee! excited for the next few years & especially looking forward to the @biologists.bsky.social 100 years meeting this coming spring :)
