An Annual Retreat of the program Fellows will be organized either in New York USA, where the domicile of the WHBA is, or in Greece. The retreat will be open to the public and media will be invited to participate. Attendees of the retreat will attend presentations by the Fellows on research they performed and clinical cases of special interest. Past Fellows will be invited to participate as speakers in sessions on career development. External “independent” referees will be invited to provide external evaluation of the training program based on the presentations given by current Fellows and progress of past Fellows.
