Introduction
With this newsletter we would like to stay in touch with the perfusionists on the field.
We try to give un update about ongoing issues in the
world of perfusion.
A selection of recently published articles about extracorporeal
technology and cardiac surgery will be chosen from international journals and cited in every BelSECT-newsletter.
A calendar with events, congresses or other interesting venues will
be kept up to date at our website.
If you have an interesting event, postgraduate meeting or an interesting
article, please contact us.

Website
The BelSECT organisation has a new website! At least, it is still on the move…
We'd like to build up
a website that is a useful tool for everyone, so please inform us with your
suggestions and remarks.
If you want to have a glance of what you
might expect, follow the link: http://www.perfusion.be
Later on, the domain belsect.be will point to this website too.
