Dear
all,
I hope that everybody had nice summer break ! During last meeting in Uppsala, the board has been renewed, with the leaving of Isabel Arnaldos and Paul Moore. Thank you very much for your friendly cooperation for the past three years. Welcome to the new board members : Alejandra Perotti and Luc Bourguignon.For the first time a representative of associate members has been elected : Ian Dadour, who has always been an active contributor of the EAFE. Welcome Ian ! ![]() I
would like to thank you to have elected me as the new president of the
EAFE. This is a great honor for me and for the laboratory I belong
to . Since its creation in 2002, the former EAFE boards worked
with enthusiasm and professionalism for the promotion
of forensic Entomology and the development of partnerships
between scientific fields involved in forensic Entomology. The publication
of the BPM was a first step, the interlab testing, presented in
Bari in 2006, another one.
After 7 years of activity, we can all be proud of what our association is today. I would like to continue and above all to insist in these following directions : - to propose creation of workings groups, necrophagous insects, temperature problematics, statistics, myasis .... ; - to help colleagues interested or involved in a quality control process, whatever the origin of their lab (big structure or not, private of state lab...) ; - to organize interlab testing ; - to help colleagues/students to check the quality, feasibility or relevance of an experimental project ; - to help next organizers of meeting (preparation of scientific program, call for funding or else) ; - to help colleagues in the reviewing of articles ; - to work all together in a more formal and clear manner, towards the members and associate members, showing the EAFE has reached the age of reason. We have, for example, to discuss the way
of election, even if I know that it is not the funniest part
of objectives, but so mandatory .... September 2009 |
