Spring in Swyncombe Oxfordshire
1. From the President
To all my EAPM friends and colleagues,
I write to give you a brief update as we move into another lovely spring. We are preparing for a terrific annual meeting for you in Munich, Bavaria, where meeting President Peter Henningsen has created a great programme. We are also developing the organizations presence, with a refresh of website, logo and ‘strapline’ and a communications taskforce led by Board member Natalie Uhlenbusch. We are continuing to work on deepening and developing our relationships with our associated national organizations with a task force led by Board member Cedric Lemogne. We also continue to make practical plans for our educational activities with a task force led by Board member Judith Rosmalen.
All in all despite a troubled world we look forward to another good year for EAPM.
I look forward very much to seeing you again in September in the most interesting city of Munich.
Finally I wish you the very best from the EAPM Board.
Michael Sharpe
President of the European Association of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, Psychosomatic Medicine and Integrated Care.
