In the face of the pandemic spread of Covid-19, the ICHS Board together with the Organizing Committee in Poznan came to the belief that it is not reasonable to hold the Congress on the scheduled date. Consequently, ICHS announced the postponement of the Congress to 22-28 August 2021.
In this regard, the Organizing Committee would like to inform you that the fee you paid is valid for the new date. If, unfortunately, you will not be able to attend in the Congress in August next year, you can cancel your registration under the general conditions.
The program of the Congress generally remains unchanged. However, some reshuffling is possible.
All important announcements concerning the Congress will appear successively on our website and on Facebook.
