Hello, dear pals in neuropsychoanalysis. It is ever so rewarding to see groups working towards our main target: building bridges in between fields. And this you can read in the reports that follow.
We understand the great effort to get out of one’s comfort zone of mother language towards a common one – if you are not a native English speaker, we are still together in the same issue; we get help from English-language natives! In this bulletin, we have reports from some countries’ first time engagers – we welcome our new Irish and Russian colleagues. And this bulletin welcomes you all. To submit information on new groups, or provide updated information on an existing group, so we can list you accurately on the Neuropsychoanalysis Association website, please visit https://npsa-association.org/regional-group-info-submission/.

With warm thanks,
Maria Sonia Goergen
