The programme is coming together!

We had a lot of interesting submissions for The Death Online Research Symposium #6 from all over the world, and look forward to a great symposium! Authors are currently being notified about the review committee’s decision and very soon, you will be able to find more practical information on the site regarding venue, accommodation and pricing.

DORS#5 postponed to 2021

Today, the international DORS coordinating committee decided to postpone the DORS#5 symposium until next year (probably April; the dates will be announced within this month).

Thanks to those of you who during the last week informed us on different Covid-19 related restrictions on your travel possibilities – this sad information gave a picture of global precaution that helped us reach the decision without too much doubt. The committee agreed upon our network not being suited for a hybrid online-offline solution, as the actual meeting each other is a huge part of the attraction.

The most likely scenario for 2021 is that we are going to use more or less the same call for abstracts in yet another round, with all already accepted abstracts on a kind of fast track (with an opening for updates). But nothing is decided yet, so stay tuned.
