[FUN_Mail] FUN 2020 Cancellation Notice

[Calin-Jageman, Robert]

Dear FUN family and friends--


Life has changed dramatically for everyone during the first few months of 2020. As each day has gone by, we have all watched the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic grow across the world, and in our own neighborhoods. While we had hoped that it would be safe for us to congregate by the time of the workshop at the end of July, that now seems far from likely. And so, it is with great regret that we reluctantly must cancel the 25th anniversary FUN Workshop, due to the real threat to our safety that is posed by COVID 19.

The FUN Workshop may be cancelled for 2020, but it is our hope to be able to announce plans soon for the future of the workshop and events hosted by FUN. We are already working to find ways to hold the workshop in the near future, and hope that you will attend the next FUN Workshop-- whether it may be 2021, 2022 or further still in the future.

We also want to remind you about our "worry-free registration policy"-- that if you have already paid registration fees for the workshop, please know you can arrange to have these refunded by contacting Veronica Acosta, the FUN Treasurer directly at vgmartin at uiwtx.edu<mailto:vgmartin at uiwtx.edu>.

Again, thanks for wanting to be part of the FUN Workshop this year, and for all you do every day for undergraduate neuroscience education. Because even if we can't be together at Davidson this summer, you live the FUN mission: you are helping to train the neuroscientists of tomorrow, today.  When we meet for our next workshop, we will have even more to celebrate--together.

Be well.

Mary Morrison, President, FUN
Eric Wiertelak, Chair, FUN Committee on Education and FUN 2020 Workshop
