Passing the torch
TTS has been exceedingly fortunate over the past few years to benefit from the efforts, enthusiasm, and wisdom of a remarkable group of individuals who have served as Officers and sat on the Council. Under their leadership and guidance, our Society has flourished. But time moves on and the old order changes. All of us are most grateful to the services of Past-President Nicholas Tilney, Vice-President Megan Sykes and Councilors Maggie Dallman, Mehmet Habral, Stephen Lynch, Manikkam Suthanthiran, Koichi Tanaka, Yves Vanrenterghem and Federico Villamil. The Society owes these individuals a great debt. They can be very proud of what they have accomplished.
The TTS presidential term of two years begins and ends with the biannual Society congress. Jeremy Chapman has been our president since the Sydney congress in 2008, and will hand over the baton at the 2010 congress in Vancouver. His presidency has spanned a particularly successful period for the Society and everyone familiar with its operations knows that the credit for this lies first and foremost with Jeremy.
