Dear Colleagues,
As you know, we had decided to postpone the FLDH 2020 Conference that was supposed to be on March 27, 2020. After careful consideration, we decided that having the conference in person in October 2020 would not be possible either.
In lieu of a physical conference, FLDH will be offering several options for showcasing the amazing panels and poster presentations that were going to take place. Stay tuned for more information.
Hélène, Allen, and Mia
