We’re Going to GDC!
Due to the support of the current participants in the study, the First Three Years Project is able to go to GDC from March 20-24. While there, the team will be presenting different papers based on the findings we have made so far, recruiting new participants, and spreading the word about our mission.
If you happen to be at GDC this year, we would love for you and your friends to come to our booth/talks and say hello!
