ISS/SIC President’s Address John G. Hunter, President ISS/SIC & Congress President ISW 2021
I trust those of you who made it to the World Congress of Surgery in August found enjoyment, refreshed relationships, and new learning. Laura, Jillian (a new University student) and I had a great time seeing old friends, making new friends, and visiting the beautiful old city of Krakow, the historic salt mines and the grim reality of Auschwitz. As enjoyable as it was, we are looking forward to our next time to gather, in Kuala Lumpur (KL) Malaysia in 2021. It is never too soon to put these dates (August 29-Sept 2, 2021) onto your calendar. We hope to see you again in in KL! In the next two years, as your ISS/SIC president, I look forward to working with the presidents of the integrated societies, a great executive committee, a diverse council, and a strong administrative office to move the ISS/SIC into new territory.
