Mapping the ESHS community

Wednesday 26 February 2020

Dear member of the ESHS

In order to attempt a first characterization of our community, ESHS officers and scientific board agreed on preparing the following survey to better understand our community’s diversity and needs.

We invite all members to answer the survey (it should not take more than 15 minutes). We hope that the analysis of results will help to foster our community’s knowledge, healthy growth and cohesion.

Many thanks for your participation!

The ESHS president, Ana Simões
