President Summary

The year 2020 was challenging for all organizations. EFMI demonstrated a strong will to overcome the challenges. We continued to grow, built a new community, keeping close the early career researchers with the yEFMI initiative, with a new officer in the Board aggregating the specific areas for this position.

EFMI national members, the Institutional members and WG chairs will connect with their young career professionals and guide them to yEFMI initiative. This ensures EFMI to be a forum open to all individuals passionate for digital health. Even with last moment decisions, we covered the conferences planned for this year, publishing the papers for MIE2020, presenting 9 virtual meetings corresponding to non-published events, and organizing the STC2020 conference as a virtual event. EFMI is partner in a new EU financed project and signed agreements with important organizations in the domain extending its cooperation capacities.

Lacramioara Stoicu-Tivadar,

EFMI President (oct. 2018 - oct. 2020)
