Although it is still almost 2 months until the ECSF2.0 meeting in Berlin in May, we decided to postpone the conference due to the COVID-19 outbreak, to risk the chances of spread, quarantine and unnecessary hospital overloads. This is also in agreement with recommendations and official decisions from authorities of the university and government of Berlin and Germany. We are currently looking for alternative dates (likely between the end of 2020 and spring/early summer 2021) and will keep you all posted.
