Athens - 25-28 January 2012

The DentCPD team arrived to warm welcome in a chilly but bright Athens. The first evening was spent getting up-to-date on all activities over a typical Greek Meal in the Plaka area of the city. The group reconvened on Thursday morning in the Electra Palace meetings rooms and addressed a busy agenda. At the start the Chairman Professor Jon Cowpe welcomed the delegates and this was followed by an address from the Local Manager of the DentCPD project, Professor Kostos Tsiklaki from Athens Dental School. 

After the introductions, the group members gave presentations on each Work Packages for which they were the lead partners. Each presentation was followed by useful discussion. Furthermore there was input from the team in Cardiff via a unique style of teleconference and Skype. There was a report from Alison Bullock on the recent Co-ordinators meeting held in Brussels earlier in the week. DentCPD was one of two projects selected for presentation to the rest of the conference and Alison received favourable feedback on the work undertaken to date.
