25.02.2021	To whom it may concern Due to the global situation concerning COVID-19, there will not be a possibility to organise this year either a face-to-face meeting. In contrast to 2020, CIPAC will organise a virtual meeting on June 14th and 15th. It is foreseen that on Monday (09:00 to 17:00), the Technical Meeting (discussing the trials/methods and general issues) will be conducted. If necessary, this could be continued on Tuesday (09:00 to 17:00). However, on Tuesday will be also the time frame for the internal CIPAC meetings. Details including the agenda will be provided in due time. To facilitate the organisation, I would appreciate a message to CIPAC2021@bvl.bund.de, if you are interested in participating at the virtual meeting. The original letter you can download here.
