We are both very excited to work together in the coming year and we are looking forward to getting to know and working together with more and more people in our group and to organizing activities for our group.
Hereby Marc's brief message to our group.
Best,
Katerina
Fellow New Investigators,
I am happy to be the newly
elected Co-Chair of the ISOQOL New Investigators SIG. Being a Co-Chair on this
great SIG will be both exciting and challenging. My mission for the next
two years will be to continue the
excellent work of Antonia, my predecessor as a Co-Chair, and to expand the role
of this SIG in stimulating active
participation between new investigators, and between new and senior
investigators, both within and outside the annual ISOQOL conference.
It was great to meet some of
you during the last ISOQOL conference in Miami.
I have heard some interesting ideas on how to expand our activities, but
also on how to strengthen the activities and the support tools that we already
have. I think it is very important that new investigators feel free to not only
ask questions, but also to come up with possible ideas and solutions. Thus, if
you have ideas, please contact us and share your ideas with us so we can share
them with the rest of the group!
In addition, I would like to
see each SIG member to become an active member. For instance, by volunteering
to assist us in achieving the SIG goals, you can help us to help you.
Furthermore, by actively contributing, you will also be in direct contact with
both new and senior researchers.
To facilitate this, we will
send an e-mail containing some of the ideas that have been mentioned by SIG
members during the SIG meeting in Miami.
Our goal is to assess which activities/ideas/goals are deemed most important by
you as a group, and to identify members that want to actively participate on
one or more of these activities.
I look forward to working with all of you!
Kind regards,
Marc Jacobs
