Dear ISHPES Members,
We are starting a new period in our society. As you all know we just elected a new council and the president. I would like to thank you all for participating in the election process and especially Scott Martyn (University of Windsor, CAN) who as a non ISHPES member supported us in having a neutral election process. It was the second time now that we had an online election. I am pleased that it worked so well.
