All conference participants are kindly asked to adhere to our Code of Conduct (based on the 2015 London Code of Conduct), and to take notice of our support to the Free Circulation of Scientists.
The SOC firmly condemns the Russia war against Ukraine and agrees with the view expressed by the European Research Council on 8 March 2022:
“We, the ERC Scientific Council, condemn the Russian attack on Ukraine. We express our strongest support for Ukraine and its scientific community.
We applaud those, including many courageous Russian scientists, who have spoken out against this war. Many European research institutions are offering to host researchers from Ukraine who have had to flee their country. We encourage this and other support initiatives - they all make a difference.
We are reminded at this time that the scientific community must stand together and show solidarity.”
The ombudsperson for our Conference is Prof.M. Bruggen.
