All in all, it was a wonderful trip to both Greece and Germany. I was
treated well in both countries and the hospitality was incredible! I
enjoyed speaking with many individuals from Europe and my keynote speech
went very well in Athens. And, I truly enjoyed my guest lecture for
graduate students at Oldenburg University and the joint work with the
Dean and the faculty was also quite relevant and I left with clear plans
to continue our work. There looks like there could be several possible
collaborations within both countries and Salus. A professor at the
University of Athens indicated interest in learning more about the BLVS programs and there is interest from Oldenburg University in Germany to
discuss ways to mesh the role of mental health with our rehabilitation
programs in CER, as well as working to provide global experiences for
our junior faculty members.

and my presentation to faculty in Germany.)
