We would like to thank all of you who helped to make this conference a success for RN22!
With 13 sessions and several joint-sessions RN22 was well-represented at the Porto conference. The business-meeting was attended by 25 participants. During the meeting we welcomed several new board members (welcome Maja, Fernanda and Guadalupe!), said our goodbyes to Kirill and thanked Maria Grazia for her spirited work as a coordinator of RN22 during a rough period for us all. With the installation of an Advisory Board we are now able to retain our institutional memory for sure. Bert de Graaff and Veronica Moretti were elected as coordinator and co-coordinator of RN22 for the upcoming term (for which we feel honored for sure).
