IPC2020 Innovating. Collaborating. Sharing

Updated: 4/8/2020

The IPC Foundation Board (ASME and CEPA) along with the IPC2020 Organizing Committee continue monitoring the Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation and its potential impact on the conference, including monitoring recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and Alberta Health Services (AHS) as the situation progresses.

As of this date, the conference is scheduled to take place. We continue to evaluate all options including to what extent a virtual conference (partial or full) may be viable to meet the needs of IPC2020 and manage constraints that may exist.

We have committed to the following:

• Technical Papers submitted, subjected to the peer review process, and accepted will be published as IPC 2020 Proceedings.
• The requirement that Technical Papers be presented at the conference in order for it to be published will be waived.
• The deadline to produce Draft Technical Papers has been extended one week to account for recent disruptions and distractions. The deadline is now April 9, 2020 and future deadlines remain unchanged.

Please continue to visit this web page for any future updates.

Very truly,

The next update to this information is scheduled next Wednesday.
