A Word from the President

The new issue of The World Journal of Biological Psychiatry vol. 9 (2) has been recently published and is now available as download in the Members Only section at www.wfsbp.org. Do not miss to browse through the articles, I am sure you will find lots of useful updates and inspiring information for your research and clinical practice.

You will recognize that The World Journal of Biological Psychiatry is now more comprehensive and has been increased in volume. Indeed our aim is to publish more articles with each new issue to provide you with even more substantial contents in the field of biological psychiatry.

On this occasion please let me also draw your attention to the Call for Symposia/Call for Abstracts for the 9th World Congress of Biological Psychiatry, 28 June – 2 July 2009 in Paris. We invite you to send us your proposals via the official congress website:

Sincerely yours,

Siegfried Kasper, MD
WFSBP President
