As the
Editor-in-Chief of the Neuroendocrinology Letters, I would like to announce
a broad interest in creating the European Society
of Neuroimmunomodulation (ESNIM)
among European Colleagues involved with research in this field. The idea is to emphasize the European identity and specific characteristics of European needs and defined programs and projects as well as to organize European Congresses. There
have been suggestions from some of the leading scientists in the field
of Neuroimmunomodulation, based in different European Countries to have
the Neuroendocrinology Letters as the official
organ of ESNIM. I, in my capacity as the Editor-in-Chief welcome
this role for the NEL very positively. In
this context it is important to state, that there is no intention to create
any kind of competition, rivalry or any conflicting situation between
the new ESNIM and
the ISNIM; The membership in one Society would not exclude the membership in the other Society and there could be made a consensus on joint membership with beneficial membership fee and also a joint subscription of the ISNIMs and ESNIMs official Journals. On behalf of the Neuroendocrinology
Letters (NEL) we would welcome this development as constructive and
supportive for the independent research and publication possibilities
throughout the European Countries and Institutions. The NEL is especially
dedicated to supporting the research and rapid publication possibilities
of young promising postgraduate students in European countries. In order to facilitate the procedures, I would like to ask interested colleagues in ESNIM to contact me at editor@nel.edu or Professor Dr. Ario Conti at ario@bluewin.ch to express your interest and commitment to joining the ESNIM. Your response is welcome before January 30, 2002. You can also announce your interest HERE. From January 2, 2002, you will find additional information about ESNIM on the PRESS ROOM Neuroendocrinology Letters website at www.nel.edu and in the NEL NEWS (Free Newsletter upon request at www.nel.edu/home.htm). I would very much appreciate to hear from you in the nearest future. I conclude with my
most cordial Seasons Greetings and Thank
your for your interest!
