21st Annual ISIR Conference: Amsterdam, July 9-11, 2020

The 2020 ISIR conference (July, Amsterdam) is now cancelled. We regret missing the opportunity to hear a wonderful line-up of speakers, but events have overtaken us. Our hearts are with all those who are suffering from the coronavirus, and with all of those working hard to look after them. Take care of yourselves, and we hope to see you in Amsterdam in 2021. If you have already registered for the conference, you will receive a refund. With all good wishes, the ISIR Board.
This year’s ISIR conference will take place in the city of Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The local host this year is Dylan Molenaar.
We have put together an exciting program including a pre-conference day about cognitive epidemiology. As well as having inspiring speakers, this meeting, in particular, offers many opportunities for networking at amazing locations in Amsterdam. Hence, we hope to see you all at the ISIR meeting in Amsterdam!
