ISIN PRESIDENTIAL WELCOME ADDRESS
ISIN PRESIDENTIAL WELCOME ADDRESS
Dear Members and Colleagues,
Dear Colleagues, we were delighted to have the 8th ISIN Congress and Educational Course in Chicago after the prolonged quiescence forced upon us during the Covid Pandemic. I want to thank our members and participants for their support in one of the most challenging periods.
For the ISIN near future, we are committed to bringing a much broader audience, more frequent virtual platform-based scientific activities, and educational opportunities to our members and all interested audiences worldwide. In 2023, we will start a dedicated online Webinar series and Educational courses, and Congress will resume on physical meeting platforms.
However, the ISIN board considers that professional education and training cannot be limited to educational courses and virtual activities; This presidency will emphasize establishing new professional educational training opportunities for its members. It will be one of the most crucial additions and a priority goal for the ISIN society. Our observation strongly supports that experience acquired through formal hands-on training in a natural environment for post-residency and post-Ph.D. candidates are essential. We are deeply committed to make it real this unique opportunity for our members and who are interested.
ISIN weathered a grave threat to its existence during the Covid Pandemic. Nevertheless, the ISIN has bounced back more robustly thanks to three great members of our society. Our tribute and gratitude go to our outgoing President, Dr.Isabel Fernandez Conejero, for her resolute leadership and Dr. Gea Drost and Dr. Andrea Szelenyi for their exceptional and crucial work on the Executive board.
We are most grateful to all our ISIN members for your continuing support and enthusiasm. We hope to see you personally in Athens in 2023 and Barcelona in 2024.
Yours sincerely,
Sedat Ulkatan
ISIN President
