Dear PAPS Newsletter subscriber,

Things are warming up. No, we're not talking about the early arrival of spring-like weather. It's the XIII PAPS Forum!The 2011-2012 PAPS Executive committee is proud to let you all know that we have just released the preliminary program to the upcoming XIII PAPS Forum that will take place at University of Toronto, Canada on April 14th and 15th.

Yes, in this edition of the PAPS Newsletter, we have included information about the Forum but there is plenty more interesting stories. This month we have our very own Vice-President, Silvia Santos from Stanford University giving us a tour of her travels through five different countries.We have the usual job board with plenty of interesting opportunities and we finish off this month's issue with a great spotlight focusing on Rita Reis' career path with special attention to her recent successful projects in Pittsburgh.

We hope you enjoy this edition of the PAPS newsletter and would like to let you know that we're preparing a special edition newsletter for next month, just before the PAPS Forum. It's going to be a trip...

Once again, please feel free to get in touch with us if you have any questions, suggestions, ideas, etc.Catch us via email at paps@papsonline.org or on Facebook and Twitter (links in the newsletter!)

Looking forward to seeing you in Toronto!

With our kindest regards,

PAPS Newsletter 64 - February 2012

Newsletter - January 2012

on Friday, 17/02/2012 — Ricardo Vidal

Dear PAPS Newsletter subscriber,

It has been a very busy start to the new year. The PAPS Executive Committee is actively working in preparation for the upcoming XIII PAPS Forum, which will be taking place at the University of Toronto, in Toronto, Canada on the 14th and 15th of April.

While we finish up work closing the program, preparing the website and the other multitude of tasks related to the Forum, we fell a bit behind track with the newsletter schedule. However, here is our January 2012 edition and it's packed with great stories.

We have a great "Who is PAPS?" entry with João Barata's career path explained, a look into Bernardo Nascimento's award winning filmmaking career path, and toward the end of the newsletter, a brief overview of Francisco Feijó Delgado's recently published research.
We've also filled you in on some information regarding the Forum, the new PAPS Ignite Sessions and the second instalment of the PAPS-LBC award.

On a side note: we have a special newsletter edition planned soon which we think you will all enjoy. We don't want to disclose much yet but it's going to put things into perspective! Stay tuned...

Once again, if you would like to participate in the newsletter with a story, news, jobs for the job board or anything else, please feel free to get in touch by email at newsletter@papsonline.org

With our kindest regards,
2011-2012 PAPS Executive Committee
