After cancelling in-person IPPW events due to the COVID-19 crisis, the IPPW planning committee has announced a virtual Webinar Series. The program consists of short sessions beginning April 30, 2020 and continuing to mid-July, and any author who submitted an IPPW abstract is invited to attend. However, not all authors will be invited to give talks, as the throughput of this activity is limited.

In addition to the Webinar, the IPPW Virtual Workshop Task Team is also pursuing opportunities for authors to create longer-form papers based on the content they were preparing. We have received some interest from Acta Astronautica in a special issue of full-length articles. These articles would go through standard peer-review process.

We need an estimated number of articles in order to make a commitment to the journal. Please take this survey by May 8th.
