Due to the measures associated with the state of alarm declared on March 14th to dentern the expansion of the COVID-19 epidemic, the Instituto de Física Corpuscular suspends all its on-site activities until further notice. The minimum services that guarantee the operation of the essential activity of the center are maintained, promoting at all times the online activity and the safety of the staff. The suspension of on-site activity includes guided tours, seminars and conferences (excluding those taught online) and the masterclass dedicated to the MINERvA experiment planned on April 2, among others. The two thesis readings planned on 27 March will be carried out by video call, as set out in the rules adopted by the University of Valencia.

We hope to resume the normal activity of the center as soon as possible. In the meantime, we follow the steps being taken by the authorities to contain this epidemic.
