Modification and cancellation of the event
The Course Organizers are intending to run the event as a physical meeting, but if they decide at any time that it is not possible to continue with a physical event due to exceptional conditions such as a pandemic, war or other such restrictions, the event may be postponed or held as an online meeting.

If postponement or a virtual event is not possible, and the event is cancelled, the Course Organisers will endeavour to reimburse as much of the registration fee as possible. Similarly, if the meeting is converted to an online format, they will endeavour to reimburse as much of the accommodation element of the registration fee as possible. In both cases, such reimbursements will depend on the timing of such a cancellation/modification and organizational costs.

Where possible, they will endeavour to provide reasonable advance notice of any such cancellation.
