With current border policies, it is unethical to continue holding so many important science conferences in the US. In addition to moving conferences to safer international locations, US organizers must reorganize meetings around remote participation.

one thing i think is cool is that if you are interested in something a particular scientist is doing or want to tell them something, you can usually just email them about their work and they'll reply.
