FAQ - INSPIRE Conference 2020 postponed

Important News

Because of the risk associated with COVID-19 infection and to ensure the health care of all the community, we have reluctantly decided to cancel the INSPIRE Conference 2020 and to host INSPIRE 2021 in Dubrovnik, 11-14th May 2021.   

We are sorry that we cannot present the exciting programme we had put together for the 2020 conference  - but we will issue a new call for abstracts for the 2021 conference soon!

INSPIRE 2020 – the Virtual Conference!

However, all is not lost!
In the meantime, we invited the organisers of special sessions and workshops to host their events in special online series of webinars and we are pleased to announce that a large number took up our invitation!

So, we invite you to explore the new programme

and join us at the

You can register your interest to attend the individual free webinars and stay up to date with INSPIRE related developments and plans.
