EAN Board Annual Meeting 2011
From 21-23 January, 2011, the EAN Board met in Paris for their Annual Board meeting. In addition to covering a wide variety of topics during this meeting (EAN statutes, EPIET training, bank accounts, job descriptions, mini-modules, website maintenance etc.), the Board managed to meet up with current EPIETs and EAN members for a nice social evening. Thanks a lot to Marc for opening his apartment for an EAN Board invasion during this weekend and for arranging the social event.

EAN Membership
EAN is currently comprised of 280 members. All graduates and current fellows of European Field Epidemiology Training Programmes can join the EAN. External applications from colleagues working in public health epidemiology are also very welcome; they need to be endorsed by 2 EAN members. If you want to join, please send an email to eanboard@gmail.com to request the application form. Our statutes specify that external members may not exceed 10% of the regular members; therefore there is a waiting list for external members.

EAN statutes change reminder
Please take some time and read through the suggested statutes changes and make comments online at http://www.epietalum.net/content/ean-statutes-rewrite (login required, EAN members only). We should start the debate as early as possible (no, not during EAN GA at ESCAIDE 2011).
