After careful consideration of a number of possible options, the EAS Executive Committee has decided that EAS 2020 Geneva will proceed with the original programme on new dates: October 04-07, 2020. This allows us to keep all other aspects of the Congress: we go ahead in the city of Geneva, at Palexpo; we maintain the high quality of the scientific programme, and we preserve all the opportunities for discussion and networking that are an essential and much-appreciated part of the EAS Congress experience.
