President’s monthly message:
Dear members and friends of PAMA,
Greetings. Hereby, I would like to update you about PAMA’s current and future activities.
Our monthly live scientific webinars have been posted for this year, please visit our website for the lineup. The topic Xenotransplantation was presented on Saturday, May 25th, by Dr. Reza Saidi. If you missed it, you could watch the replay on our website. The next webinar will be on ”Liver tumors” on Saturday, June 29th, presented by me, and the exact time will be announced on the website.
Please remember that all scientific webinars will be on the last Saturday of each month, and the list of the monthly topics is available on PAMA’s website and Telegram Channel. For more details, please see our website at: www.pama.ngo and our Telegram Channel Nedaye PAMA at: https://t.me/NedayePAMA

We have also arranged public health seminars in Southern California, organized by Dr. Omid Ashouri. Visit our website and Telegram Channel for further information.
Finally, I would like to encourage you to inform your colleagues about PAMA and invite them to join us. Currently, we are focusing on increasing PAMA’s membership. We are hoping to hold our first annual meeting in Spring-Summer of 2025. At the annual meeting, we will establish the first Board of Directors, Board of Trustees, and committee members, per our bylaws. We encourage you to volunteer for different positions which will be open at that time. For more details about the officer’s job descriptions and requirements, please see our bylaws on the website.
I will send out a monthly newsletter to all PAMA members, so tune in and stay in touch.
