Thank you very much Meredith for your mail. I want just to stress that I willing to volontary as co-chair in the group, however, due to my based location (Argentinean, living in Buenos Aires) I so not have funds to travel to the meetings. If this is a mandatory requisite to fill, I do not have the resources to do so. Nevertheless, if co-chairs can collaborate in other areas, I will be very happy to do so.
