30 Years of Translational Mobility Medicine: November 19th to 21st, 2020 Padua Muscle Days go virtual from Euganean Hills

Abstract

In the autumn of 2019, the 2020 Padua Muscle Days (PMDs) were planned to be held from March 18 to March 21, 2020. The program listed Scientific Sessions to occur over three full days at either Padova University or the Hotel Augustus on Euganei Hills (Padova), Italy. Abruptly, however, in early January the Coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak started in China and changed the world perspectives. In Italy, the epidemia had the first Italian cases and victims in an area south of Milan and in a Village of the Euganei Hills (Vo Euganeo, Padova). Thus, it was a mandatory decision to post-pone the PMDs meeting to 19-21 November, 2020. Luckily, almost all chairs, speakers, and attendees accepted the decision and have assured their presence in late November by long-distance communications. Thus, the Collection of Abstracts were e-published in 30 (1) 2020 Issue of the European Journal of Translational Myology (EJTM) together with the many EJTM Communications submitted by speakers and attendees of the 2020 PMDs Here we add a few new entries and the detailed Program of the 2020 Virtual PMDs to be organized November 19-21, 2020 from the Hotel Petrarca of Euganei Hills (Padova), Italy. The Program of the 2020 Virtual PMDs ends with invitation by Zipora Yablonka-Reuveni and myself to the 2021 (Virtual) Padua Muscle Days, March 25-27, Euganei Hills (Padova), Italy.
