Today as I come to the end of my two-year term as President of the LSIDCM, I do so with a deep sense of gratitude and pride. These past two years have been a period of steady growth, renewed energy, and meaningful progress for our society.

Had a very busy first day of the ISAC board of trustees meeting at the Royal Society of Medicine in London. We reviewed the year’s society performance at all levels including educational, services, financial, special programs and many others. Overall, we are proud of what we have achieved.

Arrived to rainy and cold London today for the ISAC trustees meeting. Looking forward to a 2 day meeting addressing important matters for the society and assessing the progress and future plans. Always great to see the ISAC team members at the professional and social levels.

✨ As 2025 ends, ISAC President Prof. Souha Kanj thanks members & partners for a year of collaboration. 🌍 Our strategy review renewed ISAC’s mission on AMR, empowerment & education. See you at #ICC2026 in Manila!🎄 www.ICC2026.org @souhakanj.bsky.social @heiman-wertheim.bsky.social
