Dear Fellow IUSSI-NAS members,
First, we would like to sincerely offer our well wishes and hope you and your family are safe in this uncertain time. Given the increasing magnitude of the coronavirus outbreak, we have decided to postpone the IUSSI-NAS breakout meeting scheduled for October 17-18th, 2020 at the Southwestern Research Station in Portal, AZ. This was a sad decision, but it is important for us to prioritize the health and welfare of our participants, which we do not feel we can do while still having an in-person meeting.
As details regarding rescheduling the meeting for Fall 2021 are solidified, you will be made aware. However, don’t cross October 17-18th, 2020 out of your calendar just yet! Instead, we are planning to organize a Zoom conference. We may as well put all these fancy Zoom skills we’ve learned to good use, right? Further details, including registration and abstract submission will become available over the summer.
Please keep up all your excellent work; we can’t wait to hear all about it in one venue or another.
Best wishes,
Sarah Bengston & Anna Dornhaus
IUSSI-NAS 2020 Breakout Meeting Organization Committee
