ISAKOS Welcomes Change & Opportunity
We are less than a year away from the 12th Biennial Congress in Cancun, Mexico! What a difference a year can make. So much can happen in that short amount of time, especially in the fast-paced world of ISAKOS. But without such change, there can be no growth or progress. Change is an inevitable force that allows us to evolve into a stronger, more impactful society—and ISAKOS welcomes that opportunity!
After the last Congress in Shanghai, we switched gears and opened Abstract Submission for the 2019 Congress in Cancun. As we did in 2017, we are expecting an overwhelming number of submissions for 2019. ISAKOS also opened applications for eight award opportunities and four fellowships—including the new Global Traveling Fellowship! We hope you had a chance to apply when submitting your abstracts or before the application deadline. Registration for the Congress is now open as well! Register today for the best rate—a $200 discount off of the on-site price. Hotel accommodations and tour opportunities can also be found at isakos.com/2019congress. Register and book early!
Technology often changes faster than one can keep up with it. As an elite and global society, ISAKOS strives to match pace and offer a universal platform for education. With that, the ISAKOS Congress Interactive Agenda has been given a revitalized look and interface! Now more mobile friendly—save this web app to your phone or tablet for easy access on the go! Access Faculty profiles and schedules, outlines and presentations, a customizable mySchedule, and more. We have also added new features such as; search and sort filters, collapsible/expandable viewing, and continuous scrolling. Take a peek today at isakos.com/interactiveagenda.
As many of you already know, the Congress next May will be ISAKOS Executive Director, Michele Johnson’s, last biennial meeting with the Society. After more than 20 years with ISAKOS, Michele Johnson has made the decision to transition out of her role as Executive Director. Since her start, the Society has grown from a small group of fewer than 900 members to the powerhouse it is today with more than 3,000 members from 93 countries. Under her wing, the Society has experienced so much change—evident in the Biennial Scientific Congresses, workshops, collaborative meetings, publications, fellowships and most recently, the establishment of the Journal of ISAKOS. The ISAKOS Family and Office Staff will be forever grateful for her service and contributions to the Society—she will be missed greatly!
We are all profoundly indebted to Michele for her leadership, creativity, and ability to work effectively and professionally with people from all over the globe .
Marc R. Safran, MD
ISAKOS President, 2017–2019
