| Dear scientist,
 Welcome at the website of the 
  
  
  2nd Dutch Endo-Neuro-Psycho 
  Meeting 2003, 
  the
  
  unique annual 
  meeting for the Dutch endocrinologist and neuroscientist in the broadest sense. 
  This Endo-Neuro-Psycho Meeting 2003 (ENP2003) is the 7th meeting of its kind, 
  which started in 1997 as the 1st Dutch Endo-Neuro Meeting, but since then has 
  grown to the forum of national scientific exchange. A bit of its 
  history and its success story can be found on
  
  http://www.enpmeeting.nl/enp/history.
 
 One of the aims of the ENPmeeting is to present the most recent developments in clinical and pre-clinical research in various fields of endocrinology and the neurosciences. 
  
  
  The 
  
  present 
  
  program  
  
  again offers many exciting sessions in the fields of  
  
  basal and clinical endocrinology, neuroendocrinology, 
  neurosciences 
  and behavioral neurosciences. To this end, many 
  scientists, participating as moderators in the meeting, have organized topic-oriented sessions in which both  internationally well-known speakers from Europe 
  
  
  or the USA were invited to present their view on the future prospects
  
  
  as well as
  
  junior scientists 
  who will contribute with their latest results in this field. 
  This is reflected by the (advised) standard format of 
  
  a  
  session: an 30 min introduction by an established senior scientist combined 
  with a number of 15 min presentations by young postdocs and/or PhD-students.This 
  approach 
  is
  
  
  chosen as
  
  to create an ideal atmosphere
  
  
  that
  
  promotes 
  interaction between junior investigators and established senior scientists, 
  the important second aim of the meeting.
 
 In addition poster 
  sessions are
  
  
  organized that are
  
  open for both young and established scientists. We would like to encourage 
  everybody
  
  
  not only to participate but also
  
  to submit an abstract for one of the four poster sessions at the
  
  
  ENP2003.
 
 The ENP2003 will again be held in Parkhotel De Branding in Doorwerth. The 
  pleasant atmosphere of the conference site has
   proven to be very stimulating
  
  for scientific and social exchange in all previous meetings, and no doubt it 
  will do so in 2003.
  Due to the high number of participants expected, the organizers 
  herewith request to make a choice for room sharing on the 
  registration page, especially for the nights 
  of 3 and 4 june
  2003. It permits all your colleagues to be accommodated at
  the spot.
 
 Finally, the organizers would like to stress and acknowledge the important contribution of the session moderators: they organized the sessions and together they are responsible for the exciting program of this years meeting. In addition, 
  the 2nd Dutch Endo-Neuro-Psycho Meeting 2003 would not exist without the generous financial support from our
  sponsors.
 
 We are looking forward seeing you in Doorwerth,
 
 On behalf of the organizing committee,
 
 Gerard Boer, chairman
