SFTE EC 2022 Symposium Report

Nuremberg (2020-05-10/12)
Written by Jim Fawcett

After two years of virtual events due to COVID, the EC Board was at last able to propose a physical symposium to members in 2022. However, the effects of COVID could still be felt with some restrictions on travel leading to some presentations being delivered remotely, late cancellations and one of the members of the organising team testing positive in the days before the event, thus stopping him from attending.

Papers from the SFTE EC Symposium 2022


Papers from the 33th Annual SFTE EC Symposium are now available on the Papers section.
