Note on EPSC2021 Fees

Note on EPSC2021 Fees

Although EPSC2021 will not involve many of the costs of physical meetings (e.g. catering and venue hire), organising a virtual meeting incurs costs related to administration, technical support, software licensing fees and development for some of the online tools.

At EPSC2020, an abstract processing fee (APF) of €50 was introduced to cover the handling of abstracts submitted to the meeting and the upload of related presentation materials, and an APF will also be applied for EPSC2021. APFs are not refundable in case of an abstract’s withdrawal, rejection, or double submission, and are a flat fee for all abstracts with no discounts available.

In addition to the APF, there will also be a participation fee. Early-registration rates will provisionally be €100 for Europlanet Members (€75 discounted rate) and €175 for non-members (€125 discounted rate). The participation fees have been increased to cover the actual costs associated with the organisation of a virtual meeting, which were significantly underestimated last year for EPSC2020. Registered participants will be able to log onto the EPSC2021 website, have full access to presentations and participate in discussions. Discounted rates on participation fees are offered for students, doctoral candidates, retirees, amateur astronomers, outreach providers and educators.

Bursaries

Early career professionals, students, outreach providers, educators, amateur astronomers and members of the community from under-represented countries may apply for bursaries to cover their participation and abstract processing fees.

Successful bursary applicants will be able to reclaim the EPSC2021 abstract processing fee of 50€ plus their registration fee. A call for applications will be announced following the issue of letters of acceptance for abstracts for EPSC2021.

Outreach at EPSC 2020

EPSC 2020 has put together an active programme of outreach activities to share the fascination and inspiration of planetary science with people around the world and to build links with new communities.

EPSC 2020 Goes Live for Schools

For the first time, the Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC) 2020 is opening its doors to schools and will give students a glimpse of how contemporary science is done.

Teachers and students are kindly invited to join us virtually with their classroom or educational institute  (suggested age range 12-18 years old or older).

Q&Α sessions will be broadcast live for students to question experts. Supporting workshops will be organised by both experienced and young researchers on planetary topics

EPSC 2020 Planetary Science Wiki Edit-a-thon

EPSC 2020 Planetary Science Wiki Edit-a-thon

The Diversity Committee of the Europlanet Society, in collaboration with Women in Red and WikiDonne, are organising an Edit-a-thon during EPSC2020 to highlight diversity within the planetary science community.

We are compiling a list of notable planetary scientists who meet Wikipedia’s Notability criteria but are currently missing, with a special emphasis on women and under-represented groups.
