SO, WHAT NEXT?

  • Registration, on-campus accommodation booking and dinner booking are suspended until further notice
  • Delegates who had already registered or booked their on-campus accommodation have been reimbursed
  • The conference theme (i.e. Pushing Boundaries) will remain the same in 2021 – and, perhaps, now more than ever sounds appropriate
  • Delegates already shortlisted for this year’s original dates are automatically confirmed but will have to confirm their intention to attend in 2021; should any delegates decline for whatever reason and the total number of shortlisted paper drop below 108, a new CfP will be issued in the forthcoming months and we may accept new submissions accordingly
  • Delegates who qualified for the student rate this year will be automatically considered eligible next year too, regardless of whether their status will have changed by then
  • Keynotes and guests will be re-invited with the awareness that they might not be able to confirm availability until nearer the new date next year
  • The SRN Awards will be pushed to 2021, and will therefore cover a two-year time period with submissions extended until May 2021

New deadlines will be arranged for all stages of the lead-up to the Conference although we will keep everyone up-to-date on any developments so as to give everyone plenty of time to adjust their plans.
