We would also like to alert you on the important WHL events being planned for the 26th Scientific Meeting of the International Society of Hypertension (http://ish2016.org/) Sept 25 – 29, 2016 in Seoul, Korea. The WHL council meeting is open to all WHL members will be convening on Sunday Sept 25th from 1:00-4:00 pm at the Coex (tentatively scheduled for room R2, this will be confirmed as soon as possible via e-mail) and will follow the WHL Executive and Board meeting occurring that morning. The council meeting will include presentations on World Hypertension Day 2016, WHL, awards, review of the by-laws, and more. Throughout the week, the WHL will also be displaying a booth in the vendor area which will be manned by our leadership in alliance with the Journal of Clinical Hypertension (JCH), the WHL home journal.
During the conference, among the invited speakers, there will be presentations by Dr. Norm Campbell, WHL Past-President, and Dr. Michael Weber, Head Editor of JCH. We look forward to seeing you there!
WHAT’S NEXT:
Soon we will also be sharing the latest issue of the WHL Newsletter with you and we ask that you share it with your societies and other colleagues who may be interested in it!
We look forward to what the rest of 2016 will bring to WHL!
Thank you,
Dr. Mark Niebylski, CEO-World Hypertension League
