    Dear Early Career conservation biologists,
    Full with optimism, we are still working on the organisation of the 5th Student Conference on Conservation Science - Europe, in Hungary, 25-29 August 2020 https://sccs.okologia.mta.hu/ . We are aware of the current pandemic situation, and the rather uncertain future in the coming months. However the end of August, the time of this year's SCCS-Europe is still far, and there is still a little chance that we can meet. If yes, we believe that to meet our community after the lockdown will be first priority for all of us. We feel that we should give this opportunity to you and to ourselves. Therefore, we decided to proceed with the organisation, thus the registration and the abstract submission is open as decided. Decision, whether the meeting will be held or not, will be made on 1st of June at the latest. Then there will be still enough time to make all the necessary arrangements. So be optimistic, and register!

    Welcome to our new key note speaker:
    Julie Shapiro (France): Bats and their pathogens: How worried should we be?
