CITE/QUAD Joint 2020 Annual Conference CONFERENCE CANCELLED DUE TO COVID-19 The CITE/QUAD 2020 Joint Annual Conference scheduled to take place May 24-27, 2020 in Vancouver, BC has been cancelled in response to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This was following the mandatory order from the Province of British Columbia on March 12, 2020 to cancel large gatherings as well as guidance from the Public Health Agency of Canada, BC Centre for Disease Control, and all levels of government asking Canadians to take preventative action to avoid the spread of COVID-19. We gratefully acknowledge the hard work of the accepted presenters, sponsors, and exhibitors who all put forward considerable efforts towards this conference. A special thank you to the CITE/QUAD 2020 Local Arrangements Committee (LAC) for their dedication and time as well as their employers for their support. Particularly in the early months 2020, significant effort was required by the LAC to address the impacts of the novel coronavirus while still continuing to plan for CITE/QUAD 2020.
