Dear ETPN members, dear colleagues,

First of all, we hope that you and your families are doing as well as possible in this very tough period. Congratulations to all our members currently bringing their precious help in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, would it be by providing exceptional research efforts, health care, or any logistic support to the global response to the crisis.

After having carefully evaluated the situation in Europe, it is clearly impossible to organize the ETPN2020 event at the chosen dates June 15 – June 17 2020. We have looked for several possible alternatives, and are glad to announce today that ETPN2020 is postponed to Wed. October 14 – Fri. October 16, 2020, still at the Aquila Atlantis Hotel in Heraklion, Greece. Please be sure, we will make our outmost efforts with our local organizers from IESL-FORTH to organize this meeting in the best possible sanitary conditions, will regularly update you about the situation, and also prepare remote conference options that might be needed more than ever.
