Abstract

This editorial will be the last one I write as President of SPRMN. After four years it is time to take stock of the life of our esteemed Scientific Society, extrapolating and perhaps anticipating the future. At the end of this second mandate, the first observation I make is that the term of the SPRMN Board should be longer and never less than 3 years. There are many things to accomplish, many actions that extend beyond the current two years and that would require the maintenance in function of the Directorate that has all the data to carry them to good port. Having said that, it is with great pride, satisfaction and a sense of mission accomplished that we will complete our mandate on March 15, 2019. I would like to invite you all to attend because the vitality of SPRMN is only the one that each of you is granting this society. As a final balance, I believe that some of the most successful events of this society were carried out, starting with our National Congress. We are, and should be, proud of the creation of the SPRMN School, an initiative that has two objectives: to educate and to transfer science and to bring the members of our society closer together. It was definitely a win.
