Closing remarks

Because conferences benefit from everyone sharing novel and unpublished data, we will take extra care to make this virtual meeting safe.

One very important point is that in order to keep track of the participants, we ask you to please make sure that every member of your group who wants to participate registers online here until February 28th, 2023. It will not be allowed to distribute the meeting link, instead, we would like to ask you to rather spread the word of the meeting beforehand. We will send then the meeting links to all people who have signed up. Also, everyone will need to log into the meeting with his/her full real name; i.e. we will make sure only registered participants are in the meeting and kick out every CB, FH, Darth Vader, Donald Duck (Trump), Bart Simpson…
