DOHaD Latin American Chapter
On behalf of my colleagues, it’s my pleasure to communicate that the Latin American DOHaD Chapter effectuated its General Assembly on December 14th 2020 and has elected a new Executive Board to be in charge until October 2023. The new board’s composition is presented below.
Prof. Antonio Marcus Paes (Brazil) – President
Prof. Gloria Barbosa Sabanero (Mexico) – Vice-president
Prof. Cristiane Matté (Brazil) – Secretary
Dr. Néstor Alejandro Dinerstein (Argentina) – Treasurer
Prof. Bernardo Javier Krause (Chile) – Coordinator of Research and Scientific Excellence
We are committed to the spreading of the DOHaD concept throughout Latin-America. This year, we have published an amazing Latin-american topic issue in JDOHaD and, against all the odds, organized our biennial meeting in virtual mode with more than 300 attendees. For this new 3-year course, this board expects to cooperatively interact with the International DOHaD Society, in both scientific and political ways, by means of mutually supporting initiatives.
