A Word from the President

As the symposia submission deadline is approaching on June 1st, I wish to remind you to submit your symposia proposal for the 9th World Congress of Biological Psychiatry, 28 June – 2 July 2009 in Paris.

Indeed the ongoing preparations of the Paris Congress are very positive and the Congress is rapidly taking shape. We invite you to visit the Congress website where you can also submit you symposia proposal:

Please also encourage your colleagues to participate in this major event in 2009. The International Scientific Programme Committee (ISPC) will compile an outstanding, top quality programme. Submit your recent research findings as symposia and be part of it!

On this occasion please let me also draw your attention to the Second Announcement of the the 3rd Dual INA-WFSBP Congress 2008 in Athens which is available as download on the WFSBP website. The WFSBP is delighted to collaborate with the Congress President Prof. C. Soldatos for this event which promises to be highly rewarding.
