Dear Members of ERSA, dear Colleagues,

 

We keep on moving forward. While the Coronavirus pandemic is unfortunately still ongoing, we continue to propose outstanding opportunities to learn, discuss and debate ongoing research. Our commitment and support to our community remain strong.

 

Like our Sections, we have been very active and successful with online events since the beginning of this year. ERSA latest events include the first ERSA Covid-Battle (12 March) and the ERSA-REGIO lecture (25th March) which encountered a huge success with over 120 participants. If you missed them, we will share the videos on our YouTube Channel.

 

Regarding our landmark Congress, we are happy to extend the submission deadline for ERSA2021 Congress until the 15 of April. The format of the Congress could be adapted if the situation remains difficult in the coming months.

 

With best wishes,

 

André Torre

ERSA President
