Research and Events Digest - April 2019

Hi,

We would like to present to you our April Edition of ESRAD's Research and Events Digest Newsletter. This edition features new publications by ESRAD members, upcoming conferences as well as a commemoration of our last year's conference #throwbackthursday #TBT.

We would also like to wish you a relaxing and cheerful time during the Easter holidays. We are sure that the first few months of this year must have been tiring, but fulfilling for you, so a well-deserved break is in order. We hope the breath of fresh air and some blissful time with family and close ones will rejuvenate your energy to continue with full steam ahead on your endeavours in the field of adult development!
