14th International EAFP Conference on Diseases of Fish and Shellfish (EAFP 2009)

14th International EAFP Conference on Diseases of Fish and Shellfish (EAFP 2009)
14 - 19 September 2009

Dear Alice,

On behalf of the EAFP Council I would like to thank you for you and your teams excellent organisation and support for the conference. We all felt it was a great success and for that we are grateful. Despite initial concerns we achieved target registration levels and exceeded the number of oral and poster presentations expected based on previous conferences. The venue was great with superb efficient organisation on your part. The excellent organisation for the posters was commented on by many ('the best ever' was one memorable comment), of course the authors take tremendous credit for the content and presentation!

Your team offered highly professional and prompt support during the week (even for a screwdriver I seem to remember) and all with good humor. Of course there were things that were not straightforward but these were mainly beyond our control (banquet transport). There are always lessons to be learned for all of us.

There are still some tasks to finalise such as the finances and I know you have these in hand. We anticipate that there will be no surprises there and look forward to hearing from you in due course.

Best wishes,

Steve

Dr. Stephen W. Feist
