Abstract

Many spring conferences and academic events go to virtual (January 21, 2021) Nearly one year ago, due to rapid spread of the COVID-19 disease, almost all academic conferences to be held in spring term were cancelled, except the April Meeting of the American Physical Society (APS), which only chose virtual format, almost for the first time as a fairly large scale meeting. This year, fortunately, many conferences will not be cancelled. In the USA, both the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the Materials Research Society (MRS) will have virtual meetings for the spring 2021. Almost the same trends happened in other countries as well. In Japan, the Japan Applied Physics Society (JASP), the Physical Society of Japan, the Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ), the Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry (JSAC), the Japan Institute of Metals and Materials (JIM), the Japanese Society for Synchrotron Radiation Research (JSSRR), and many other societies chose the online meeting for the spring events. On the other hand, conventional face-to-face style must be still attractive to get further intellectual stimulus and deeper understanding of the latest hot topics. Let’s see what happens in the late 2021.
