Abstract
Virtual Reality has reached a crossroads from hype-fueled field to one of serious application, evaluation, and study. And the group that will transform the field are the senior graduate students and recent graduates in virtual reality research groups and companies across the world. This panel is to provide a platform to these "next-gen" VR pioneers and, thus, give them a stronger voice in the field. Tentative topics are: the future of VR; building a VR career; evolving the IEEE VR conference.
