Dear Participants of EASP General Meeting 2020,

Given the recommendations of health authorities and travel restrictions that most of you are facing right now, it became clear that the General Meeting of EASP could not take place in July 2020. Your health and safety are of the utmost importance to us. Thus, we are sad to announce that the meeting needs to be canceled.

We hope that the situation will improve and we will be able to meet in Krakow in summer 2021. If that turns out to be feasible, all presentations that were accepted for the 2020 meeting can be given at the next event. Of course, presenters will be able to update their abstracts or withdraw if they choose to. Once the event is announced, we will be in touch with you. We will keep you informed about that as soon as things become more predictable.

We will provide a full refund of the conference fee for all participants that have already paid till now. We will get in touch with registered participants regarding the details of reimbursement in the next few weeks. Please wait until you receive this message before contacting us.

We want to thank members of the Scientific Committee, who worked very hard on the program and we strongly believe this work will not be wasted. We also want to thank the EASP Executive Committee for their support and guidance. Last but not least, we want to thank you for your contributions to the conference, which would be an amazing event. We hope it is only postponed and we can still meet and learn from each other next year.  

We want to express our solidarity with those who are directly affected by this situation and we hope that it will improve soon. In the meantime, let’s stay connected and socially close, even if physically distant. If you have any questions please contact us.
