@sgtgary Good! And it's not the only conference - some already moved. Here in France, scientists are warned by their collegues to travel to the USA. And we have several official travel warnings for people in EU countries, too (e.g. if you are trans, how they handle your privacy etc.)

@NatureMC I am glad people are being notified of the safety and security problems in the US!
