SAVE THE DATE
6th-8th July 2021
The current sanitary emergency due to Covid-19 faced all countries in severe situations, limiting international travels. Additionally, some Research Institutes still don't authorize trip abroad, limiting to plan the participation to meetings and conferences around. Up to the recent news, COVID-19 infection rates continued to increase. In this circumstance, we still don't know how the situation will evolve in the future months. We'd like not to risk holding a virtual event, preferring to offer to the participants the opportunity to share in presence their researches and exchange experiences. In addition, due to the pandemic, a lot of conferences expected for 2020 and 2021 have been postponed in 2022. For all these circumstances we decided to postpone the next 16th EMAC in-presence Conference in Pisa to spring 2023!
In the meantime, we feel that keeping active our community and promoting the scientific discussion is of great importance. We are pleased to announce a three days online event that will offer the opportunity to meet each other and discuss recent researches and future prospective.
WAITING FOR EMAC2023@Pisa 2023 online event will take place on July 6-8, 2021.
