AIDH repurposed events schedule
I had already paid to attend HIC 2020. What are my options now that HIC 2020 has been cancelled and replaced with the Summit?
Your HIC 2020 registration can be easily transferred to your local Summit event. Alternatively, we can give you a credit note to use on any other AIDH product. Please email [email protected] to let us know how you wish to proceed.
I had already paid to attend ATC 2020. What are my options now that ATC 2020 has been cancelled and replaced with the Summit?
Your ATC 2020 registration can be easily transferred to your local Summit event. Alternatively, we can give you a credit note to use on any other AIDH product. Please email [email protected] to let us know how you wish to proceed.
I made a submission to HIC 2020 at the start of the year, what happens to my submission now that HIC is no longer happening?
If your submission was under the academic/scientific category and you do not wish to make any changes to it, then we can transfer it over to the Summit and it will then be judged as per Summit submission guidelines.
However, if you would like to make substantial changes to what was previously submitted, then you need to submit a new expression of interest to present and your previous submission will be retracted.
The academic/scientific program and publication is unchanged, except that you will now present your paper at your local Summit event.
Please email [email protected] to let us know how you want to proceed.
If your submission was under the industry or clinical categories, then you will have to resubmit according to the new guidelines for the Summit.
I was accepted to speak at ATC 2020, does that mean I am automatically included in the new Summit program?
Yes. You should have received a letter from us outlining this. However, if you would like to make substantial changes to what was previously accepted, then it will be treated as a new expression of interest to present and your previous presentation will be retracted. The new topic will then be judged for presentation as per regular Summit guidelines. Please email [email protected] to let us know how to treat your accepted ATC presentation.
