Update, March 14:  The National Academies posted this general notice about the status of Astro 2020 meetings during the coronavirus outbreak, but the webpage for this particular steering committee meeting does not yet indicate if the meeting is postponed or will be held virtually.

In light of the recent cases of the COVID-19 virus in the Washington DC metropolitan area, and in keeping with our deep commitment to the community we serve, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will not hold in-person activities involving non-staff participants from March 14 – May 1. Upcoming Astro2020 meetings will be converted to virtual meetings whenever possible.
