Dear colleagues,

Together with the Scientific Director, the Scientific Events Committee has made the difficult and disappointing decision to cancel the 7th Annual PERFORM Conference: LIFESTYLE ACROSS THE LIFESPAN that was scheduled for May 14, 2020. This decision was made in light of the extraordinary circumstances in which we all find ourselves due to the global COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic as ensuring the health, safety, and wellbeing of our speakers and attendees is of primary importance.

We recognize that many students have worked hard on their abstract submissions and apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. We are proud of the program we created for this year's conference. We plan to keep the same theme for our 2021 Annual PERFORM Centre Conference and are hoping that we will be able to move much of this year's program to next year's conference.

We recognize that everyone is struggling with the challenges of COVID-19 and are thankful for your understanding. We send you best wishes of health for you and those around you.

Sincerely

Sylvia Santosa
Chair, Scientific Events Committee
