A big "Thank you" goes out to all the speakers and their co-authors for providing valuable insight into their latest scientific results, as well as to all the participants of this conference for their equally important questions. You are the ones that made this online conference a success in times where meeting in person is, sadly, not possible. As a reward, we are happy to announce that we are now able to provide you with all the available recordings of the conference talks below, as well as, the presentation material in high resolution which you can find by navigating through the individual contributions listed in the time table.
Sincerely yours,
The RealPEP online conference organization committee
