A Word from the Secretary General
Continuous communication is an indispensable condition for keeping a scientific society alive. Thanks to IT it is today very easy for us to communicate worldwide on a personal level.
In order to support this communication within SICOT, this monthly electronic Newsletter has been established in addition to the very well accepted printed one. This e-Newsletter is distributed to every member who has an e-mail address, as well as non-members who have demonstrated an interest in the work of SICOT and might be curious about what is going on within SICOT throughout the year. We would like to provide both members and non-members with up-to-date information every month.
The e-Newsletters are consistently provided with different links, allowing the e-Newsletters to be concise on the one hand, and providing the interested reader with full information on the other.
We hope that you will find this electronic form of the Newsletter interesting and informative.
Jochen Eulert
SICOT Secretary General
Message from the Editorial Secretary
The SICOT e-Newsletter was launched at the beginning of October 2008 and is published in the first week of every month.
The publication of an e-Newsletter provides the SICOT National Representatives and SICOT members with more opportunities to publish their scientific and professional experiences and share their views more effectively and frequently.
To maintain the quality of the e-Newsletter, the editorial policy laid down for the printed Newsletter is followed. However, the authors/contributors of the e-Newsletter have the freedom to write what they think is true and have the responsibility to guarantee the integrity of their article. Since the editorial process does not allow time for a "peer review", the readers of the Newsletter are requested not only to read the article but also to review its technical and ethical contents and publish their views in "Letters to the Editor".
In order to achieve the overall SICOT goals, I invite all members of the SICOT Board of Directors and National Representatives to contribute by writing an editorial; country report; committee report; interesting case report; articles on young surgeons affairs, residency training programmes, issues related to professional ethics and quality assurance; news and views, as well as any other issue that will be of interest to others.
