IMPORTANT: FLAIR 2020 HAS BEEN CANCELED

THE NEXT EDITION WILL TAKE PLACE 12-16 SEPTEMBER 2022 IN AIX-LES-BAINS

SARS-CoV-2 is deeply affecting the mode of living of people all over the world, in a manner that could not have been foreseen when FLAIR 2020 was scheduled. it has quickly become abundantly clear that the meeting could not be held as usual, and we regret we have had to decide to postpone FLAIR to 2022.

This has also had important ramifications for the public tenders required for the conference's organiszation. We are very disappointed that in the end this meant that FLAIR could not be held in Lyon. But we are convinced that a return to Aix-les-Bains will be appreciated by many.

After six editions, we can claim that FLAIR has an outstanding reputation, due to the excellent scientific program, and notably the selection of (invited) speakers, as well as its characteristic mode of operation. FLAIR has always been held in isolated conference centers or small towns, such that all participants could enjoy five days of intense interactions, thus fostering new scientific contacts and cooperation among the attendees. This aspect is evidently also highly appreciated by our industrial sponsors.

For these reasons we believe that holding FLAIR in an online version would be highly detrimental from any point of view. We thus look forward to seeing you in Aix-les-Bains, France, 12-16 September 2022.

With our best wishes of good health and continued, rewarding scientific activity,
