Welcome

Dear fellow G-I-N members:

We are all back to work after celebrating the 10th anniversary of Guidelines International Network (G-I-N) and attending a very successful 9th annual meeting in Berlin. I was truly impressed by the high quality of the scientific content as well as lively and active participation from the floor. I would like to congratulate and thank the attendees and presenters for making it such a great educational experience for all of us. I believe that the annual meeting provides us a wonderful opportunity to exchange ideas, learn from each other’s experiences, and apply the lessons in our respective countries.

I am very delighted and honored to be elected as the chair of the G-I-N. I very much appreciate your trust and confidence in me and I will do my very best to serve you over the coming year. I think that going forward, it is important for us to deliver valuable services to our members, increase our membership, and evaluate our core business, including financial stability and growth. I would personally like to work with my fellow Trustees to efficiently utilize our limited resources and work towards these goals. I would also like to hear from you regarding your ideas on how we can make G-I-N a better home for all of you. Please feel free to contact me via email at chair@g-i-n.net or call me at +1 215 3512837.

Finally, I want to thank you for all of your dedication and support. All of you are the spirit of G-I-N and you are the network. I just can’t thank you enough for all you do and how you all manage to make G-I-N feel like a family.
