Dear participants of HSM2021,

we would like to express our sincere gratitude to each and every one of you for helping to make this year’s conference a success by attending and presenting, be it remotely or in person, despite the complicated surrounding conditions. We hope you had the chance to listen to interesting talks and presentations as well as present your own findings to the international audience. For everybody who would like to dive deeper into the topics of a specific scientific presentation, there will be the opportunity to do so by accessing the full-text paper online after the publication date, which will be the 3^rd of November 2021 for all papers published in the November issue of the MM Science Journal. After this publication date, the conference proceedings will be accessible via the HSM2021 website. They will include the full-text papers of all papers not published in the MM Science Journal as well as references to the MM Science Journal publications with the respective links and contact information.

The respective links to conference proceedings and the November issue of the MM Science Journal will appear here after the publication date. All authors will additionally be notified directly by us and receive the respective links to their publications and DOI-Numbers.

In case of any questions or issues please don’t hesitate to contact us at:
