European Platform for Photodynamic Medicine (EPPM) Message from the President
The 13th bi-annual conference of the ESP, in conjunction with the 2nd congress of the EPPM is a great occasion for both scientists and clinicians concerned with PDPDT. The meeting in Wroclaw has provided this opportunity for the two organisations to join together from 5th to 10th September. The EPPM is still in the early stages of its development and, as such, has welcomed the initiative of this joint venture. Kristian Berg, President of the ESP, Piotr Ziolkwski and Francesco Ghetti have been in charge of the organisation of the meeting; it has been a privilege to work with them. Thanks also must go to my colleagues Heinrich Walt and Herwig Kostron; also to Tania Khan for the web support. Nearer home the staff of Yorkshire Laser Centre had lent invaluable support to my contribution to the programme organisation, I am grateful to all of them.

The EPPM has, for some time, been affiliated with PDPDT. Since the journal has become indexed by Pubmed/Medline the plan is to work towards the adoption of PDPDT as its official journal. An overview of the conference programme appears in this issue, together with abstracts of the invited speakers. I look forward to renewing my acquaintance with some of you and meeting many more. President of EPPM Keyvan Moghissi MD, FRCS ∗ Yorkshire Laser Centre, UK ∗ Tel.: +44 1724 290456. E-mail address: [email protected]
