Publié par Raphaela - Catégories : #Science Articles

To those of you who read and follow my blog, I am pleased to share with you that I have just been elected Vice President of Euroscience, the European Association for the Promotion of Science and Technology www.euroscience.org

EuroScience is a European non-profit grassroots association open to research professionals, teachers, students, science administrators, policy-makers, etc. and generally to any citizen interested in science and technology and its links with society.

EuroScience represents not only European scientists of all ages, disciplines and nationalities but also from the business sector and public institutions such as universities and research institutes.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who made this victory possible and I commit to continue serving this organisation to the best of my ability.

Thank you to all of you.
