The 20th ISDE Executive Committee Meeting
was held on 21 October, 2000 at the Chicago Sheraton Hotel and Towers,
Chicago, USA under the chairmanship of Dr T DeMeester.
1. Membership
Committee
The present membership is 758 (highest ever). There were 78 new members
in 2000(second highest for a non-congress year). The term `honorary
member' should be changed to `distinguished member', since the term
honorary member implies somebody who has been made so because of meritorious
contributions to the society. Senior members should be awarded their
status automatically upon retirement without requiring a request.
At the present meeting, seven candidates for Senior Membership were
presented by the Secretary General.
2. Scholarship Committee
Two individuals from seven applicants were selected to be granted
scholarships in 2000. The necessity for fund raising inside and outside
of Japan was discussed.
3. Journal Committee
The journal, Diseases of the Esophagus, is now listed in all major
search systems such as Medline, Index Medicus, etc. The impact factor
will be calculated and will be available in 2001. The journal has
an online version. The scientific situation of the journal is now
stable and acceptable. Dr DeMeester pointed out that the journal is
one of the most valuable assets of the society and praised Dr Siewert,
the Editor-in-Chief, for the job he has done. Discussions was held
concerning the lengthy process involved in publishing the journal.
4. Financial Report
A discussion was held on the possibility of a partnership or affiliate
relationship with a `big-brother' society and holding a joint conference,
and it was decided to continue the discussion at a later time. The
Secretary General proposed to increase the dues from $100 to $150,
and to add a statement with a request for donations. It was decided
to recommend to the Council and General Assembly in Sao Paulo that
the dues be raised to $150.
5. New Proposal
Dr Siewert proposed that the already in-place system of Federation
Chairman should be strengthened so that Federation Chairmen would
all have a counterpart who is an internist . A motion to that effect
was made and accepted. The next Executive committee Meeting will be
in Atlanta in May at the time of the DDW. Dr DeMeester said that a
dinner will be held at the DDW in Atlanta to which all officers will
be invited and all Federation Chairmen will be strongly encouraged
to bring one internist.
6. Nomination of International Officers
and Personnel
The Secretary General presented information on the need for several
changes of offices, in particular the need for a new Vice-President
to succeed Dr Lerut. It was decided not to discuss these points at
present and changes of offices will be discussed between now and the
meeting in Sao Paulo. |
