| A Word from
the President On
behalf of the whole WFSBP leadership, I wish you
and your family a wonderful and enjoyable summer.
Let me thank you for your ongoing support and
interest in the developments of our Federation.
Over the summer
we will keep working on the preparations of the
WFSBP 2009 Congress in Paris. Thus we will present
to you the First Announcement at the beginning
of the new academic year. The WFSBP 2009 Paris
Congress promises to be a highly successful and
cutting-edge scientific event. In this sense we
are very much looking forward to your scientific
contributions for this major congress.
During the ECNP
Congress in Vienna this autumn, please make sure
to visit the WFSBP booth where updated information
will be available and where the staff of the WFSBP
Global Headquarters will assist you. Several WFSBP
meetings will also be held. The meeting results
and further evolvements of the Federation will
be reported to you in time.
Sincerely yours,
Siegfried Kasper, MD WFSBP President
