#vEGU21: Engage • Discover • Inspire

After the success of the online format of the conference last year, the EGU is coming back in 2021 in its virtual format on 19–30 April 2021, in light of the still-ongoing pandemic of COVID-19, to allow scientists and stakeholders from all over to meet online and exchange perspectives, results and suggestions to implement in their future work.

As always, APPLICATE is here to support its fellow researchers to find interesting sessions to attend and to send abstracts to. Abstract submissions will be accepted until 13 January 2021 at 13:00 CET, and they can be updated until 15 January 2021 at 24:00 CET.
