The organizers were looking forward to welcoming you all to Birmingham this year to celebrate the 20th anniversary of BAVS. It is therefore with great regret that the organizers announce that BAVS 2020 will be postponed until next year. After careful consideration and consultation with the BAVS Executive Committee, it was decided that this is the only viable course of action, given the increasing uncertainty that we face with regards to the COVID-19 pandemic. The organizers wanted to let you all know in time, before you started making arrangements for the conference.
The organizers hope that you are able to join them next year in Birmingham. If you have submitted an abstract or proposal, please be assured that they will be happy to consider these for next year; you’ll be hearing from them soon with this information, and they will be in touch again once there are further details.
All of Brum wishes the BAVS community a safe few months, and they can’t wait to see all of you in 2021. Should you wish to contact the organisers, you can reach them at bavs2020@contacts.bham.ac.uk.
