The WMS Executive Board has met 30-31 March in London. New elections for the next 3-year term were due after the new Executive Board had been elected at the 2016 WMS meeting in Granada. As Prof. V Dubowitz had decided not to continue his Presidency after having served since the initiation of the Society in 1995,  new officers were elected. Prof. T Voit, London, was elected as the new WMS President. Prof H Topaloglu, Ankara was confirmed as the WMS Secretary, and Dr. G Bonne, Paris was elected as the Treasurer.
