Please take your time to explore the possibilities. Just let me know when you have more clarity on in-person vs. online.

We would be happy to present the work we are doing within BRICS. However, I am not yet able to confirm whether the participation would be in person or online, as I have only recently become aware of the meeting.
</p>
<p data-start="260" data-end="342" style="margin:0px;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px;">
I will explore the possibilities and revert to you as soon as I have more clarity.

Dear colleagues,
</p>
<p class="ds-markdown-paragraph" style="font-size:16px;white-space:normal;margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:16px;caret-color:#0F1115;color:#0F1115;font-family:quote-cjk-patch, Inter, system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;">
Apologies for the late notice, but I would like to explore the possibility of organising a session under the Education Interest Group (Edu IG) at the upcoming IVOA Interoperability Meeting in Strasbourg (8–12 June 2026).
</p>
<p class="ds-markdown-paragraph" style="font-size:16px;white-space:normal;margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:16px;caret-color:#0F1115;color:#0F1115;font-family:quote-cjk-patch, Inter, system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;">
Given the current timeline, I fully understand that this is a short window. However, if there are enough confirmed in-person presentations, we can move forward with a formal session proposal.
</p>
<p class="ds-markdown-paragraph" style="font-size:16px;white-space:normal;margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:16px;caret-color:#0F1115;color:#0F1115;font-family:quote-cjk-patch, Inter, system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;">
Please let me know if you would be interested in presenting or sharing your work during an Edu IG session in Strasbourg, and whether you plan to attend in person. Feel free to also forward this message to any colleagues who might be interested.
</p>
<p class="ds-markdown-paragraph" style="font-size:16px;white-space:normal;margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:16px;caret-color:#0F1115;color:#0F1115;font-family:quote-cjk-patch, Inter, system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;">
