I just want to wish all of our members a Merry Christmas for those that choose to celebrate!

I’m a member of the CMCS Advisory and Editorial Board, and I am extremely excited to see our LinkedIn group develop and grow over this next year. I know 2015 is full of exciting events for us as well as new and interesting developments that you will find out about in coming months!

Warm wishes to you all and I look forward to sharing research and discussion with you over this next year!
