SleepTalker Awake!

James P. Dilger, PhD

Call it hibernation, call it leave of absence, or call it a hiatus. In spite of what I wrote last December, it wasn't resignation! By request of Dr. Syed Shah, and due to my sentimentality, I have returned as newsletter editor and webmaster! During the summer, I'll be working remotely from our summer home on Cape Cod.

I am delighted that CA-2 Resident Dr. Murad Elias has agreed to return to the Newsletter as Resident Liaison! Murad will contribute articles and photos related to residents and the residency program. And, I am pleased to welcome CA-1 Resident Dr. Vincent Bargnes as Assistant Editor of the Newsletter! Vince will be involved in all aspects of the newsletter production from writing, to editing, to html formatting. I think we'll make a great team! Don't be surprised if either Murad or Vince approaches you with a notepad (or a smart phone on record) in hand and starts asking questions!
