Nordic Network in Neurorehabilitation Nordic Network in Neurorehabilitation Seminar at World Congress of Neurorehabilitation, Istanbul/Turkey 11th of April, 12:30 – 13:30 Sultan 2, Istanbul Lütfi Kırdar International Convention & Exhibition We hereby invite all WCNR participants with affiliation to a Nordic country to participate in this seminar which is part of a process of establishing a formal Nordic Network in Neurorehabilitation. In addition to obvious geographical reasons, we consider the common cultural and historic background and the quite similar societal structures as important reasons for further collaboration. Program: Welcome (Frank Becker) Nordic cooperation: an example from rehabilitation of severe TBI (Catharina Nygren-Deboussard) Presentation of Working Document (Hanne Munk) and Background & Purpose paper (Merete Stubkjaer Christensen) Discussion Round-up (Frank Becker) Background for the Nordic Network During the World Congress of Neurorehabilitation in Melbourne in 2012, a number of Nordic attendees gathered and decided to improve Nordic cooperation in neurorehabilitation. As a result, a Nordic Network Meeting in Neurorehabilitation was held in Copenhagen in May 2013, with about 100 participants from Denmark, Sweden and Norway. In addition to lectures on different neurorehabilitation topics, further co- operation was discussed. An interdisciplinary working group with 2 representatives from each of the three countries was elected. One aims to formally establish a Nordic Network in Neurorehabilitation during the next Nordic Network meeting at Sunnaas Rehabilitation Hospital (Oslo/Norway) 18th – 19th of May 2015. We cordially invite you to the seminar and especially welcome also our Finnish and Icelandic colleagues!

  • Motivation Letter Oslo, May 27Th, 2021 Dear ESGO Colleagues, I Am Writing
    Motivation letter Oslo, May 27th, 2021 Dear ESGO colleagues, I am writing to express my great interest in running for ESGO council. As an active member of the society for many years, I have enjoyed taking part in various meetings and educational activities both in-person and online, benefiting from the hard work and dedication of the ESGO leadership. To be a part of this leadership team would be very rewarding and a great honor. I currently have the privilege of holding the position of social media editor for the International Journal of Gynecological Cancer. In this role I have worked closely with editor in chief, Pedro Ramirez, and learned a great deal from him regarding academic leadership. I have initiated a virtual journal club, mentored editorial fellows and been able to grow the journals social media followers on Twitter from ca 100 to more than 3000 in two years. Through this experience I have also very much enjoyed collaborating with the ESGO office, and my fellow associate editors from ESGO. As a gynecologic oncologist at the Norwegian Radiumhospital my main focus is surgical treatment of gynecologic malignancies, both robotic surgery and radical cytoreductive procedures. Since my return from fellowship at MSKCC in 2015 I have taken on the lead of our Endometrial cancer and gyn sarcoma team, have been responsible for organizing the annual Tropé meeting on updates and controversies in gynecologic oncology with professor emeritus Claes Tropé, and more recently initiated a course in ovarian cancer surgery, this year in conjunction with ESGO. Thank you for the opportunity to apply for ESGO council.

The conception of risk usually overlaps with definitions on crises and disasters. Risk communication is often used broadly to capture both risk and crisis communica- tion. Crisis communication, often conflated with risk communication, is a sepa- rate field, but can include aspects of risk communication (Sheppard et al, 2012). Historically, risk communication research tends to most frequently involve case studies and lists of best practices. Among earlier case studies are the Septem- ber 11th terrorist attacks (Carey, 2003, in Noll) and Hurricane Katrina (Sheppard et al, 2012). Risk communication studies have a tradition of focusing on informa- tion presentation, persuasion, and strategic messaging.
