Newsletter September 2009

This edition of the Newsletter has been delayed to include details of the ICNA Executive Board Meeting held in Kyiv, Ukraine on 8-9 September, 2009. Some important changes to the electoral process were agreed upon, and it is hoped that the ICNA Membership will endorse these to produce a more equitable electoral process.

This is the third edition of the Newsletter to be distributed electronically via email and ICNApedia, and not by paper copy. I wrote letters last time to a small number of members who did not have email addresses, offering to send paper copies but none requested these. If you are aware of any members who cannot access the Newsletter, please inform me on their behalf. Our list of emails is at times incorrect, and it is vital that you notify the Treasurer or me if you change your address or if you fi nd you can access this only by ICNApedia.

I remain committed to publishing details of all National and Regional Conferences and Activities. Please inform me of any such matters. There is an excellent article in this issue on Child Neurology in Turkey by Banu Anlar and Haluk Topaloglu.
