cancellation and coauthor replacement
by Raiteri, Emilio 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

Dear Conference Organizers, Unfortunately, due to an unexpected personal issue, I had to change my plans for the week of June 13th and I will not be able to attend the DRUID conference. I have asked my coauthor, Leonardo Giuffrida, if he could join instead. In case he could make it, would it be possible for him to take my place and keep the paper in the conference's program? I have also already paid the participation fee and I was wondering how such a replacement could be dealt with from that point of view. Thanks in advance for your help. Kind regards, Emilio Raiteri
