Dear VPH friends,
It is with great pleasure and satisfaction that we announce the Parliament has recently recognized the VPH technology to be a great value e-health solution. This is the hoped for outcome of the activities the Policy Affairs working group of the Institute has thoroughly carried out during the past months. A part from the satisfaction, this result is a strong confirmation that the work we are doing goes in the right direction to ensure the recognition of the VPH research, but it also reinforces the importance of speaking with one voice: only if we join forces we can get the results we need to make the VPH technology fully realised, universally adopted, and effectively used both in research and clinic.
In such an important moment, we take the chance to ask for your support: if you are not yet a member of the VPH Institute, come on board! This is the right time! We now offer different types of membership (including personal ones) that would require you only a minimal investment money-wise, but will give you the possibly to play an active role in the common mission of making the VPH technology a reality at its best extent, reinforcing our credibility as a leading community.
Best regards,
Martina
VPH Institute Manager |
