 | Updates from our Study Groups Study Groups can now disseminate information through the ESCMID Newsletter. This issue sees a new initiative of ESCMID with the online publication of the newsletter of one of our Study Groups, the ESCMID Study Group for Viral Hepatitis (ESGVH). It contains useful information about recent collaborations, projects and forthcoming meetings. We now have 18 Study Groups which are expert groupings that enable our members to join with colleagues in collaborative scientific ventures across Europe, with the financial and administrative support of the Society. To enhance the reach of the Study Groups, and the benefits to all our members, we now wish to make all members aware of all Study Group activities. The regular newsletters of each of the Study Groups will be published online. ESCMID members can take advantage of this oppportunity to seek out any events or collaborations that may be relevant to their own activities. We hope you find this a useful new addition to our online resources. | |
