Newsletter 2025
Dear Colleagues,
As we welcome 2025, I send my warmest regards to you all and hope this newsletter finds you well and in good health.l am delighted to share the society's latest updates, achievements, and upcoming events. Last year, 2024 was a busy time focused on administrative tasks. We worked hard to finalize the legal documentation to acquire our society's unified registration number. Dr. Hoda Yehia apologized for being unable to continue as treasurer, and Dr. Ehab has since taken over the position. The change of this position from Prof. Hoda to Dr. Ehab took a lot of administrative procedures, between the bank and the Social Solidarity administration for Societies in Warraq.We sincerely thank Dr. Hoda for her dedication and look forward to working with Dr. Ehab.
This year, we aim to prioritize scientific activities and to engage electron microscopy centers in the society's activities and foster better cooperation. In addition, the Society will be hosting the Electron Microscopy Conference 2025 on October 13-14. This conference was originally expected to take place in 2024. However, due to the need to meet various regulatory requirements and inquiries addressed to the Society by the Social Solidarity administration, the conference has been rescheduled to 2025. As previously notified, the conference will adopt a hybrid format, allowing both in-person and virtual participation to accommodate a broader audience of researchers, professionals, and students from inside and outside Egypt. We look forward to sharing more details as we move forward with this highly anticipated event.
After the conference, we plan to start organizing regular meetings to tackle specific electron microscopy topics, encouraging the exchange of ideas and expertise between EM centers in Cairo and other Egyptian governorates.
This ambitious plan for the year ahead cannot be accomplished without the efforts and cooperation of all of us.
Let's go forward and continue this mission together.
Thank you.
Very best wishes to all,
ESEM President
