We are going to be filling vacant places on the committee and will hold an election if there are more candidates than places. Full paying members are eligible to apply. We want to welcome enthusiastic people on board, so please consider joining if you are able to help. Please write to express your interest to secretary@hellenicmedicalsocietyuk.org.
Kind regards,

ΚΕ.Σ.Υ. plans to develop a database consisting of the contact information of Greek expatriate scientists, which will be available on it’s website. In this way, a channel of communication will be established to enable scientists in Greece to explore opportunities abroad as well as expatriate scientists to further support the scientific community in Greece. They invite all the expatriate medical workforce to declare their availability and willingness to be contacted by and collaborate with individuals as well as scientific organisations in Greece
Using a realistic but imaginative approach, the objective of the initiative is to bring high quality human capital of the country together and to create collaboration links between them. This networking of Greeks can strengthen the growth prospects of the country and ensure that participating Greeks become part of a joint endeavour.
