Please use this form to put your name forward for election to serve on the International Society for Biocuration Executive Committee (ISB EC) - Deadline 7th September 23.59 PDT. The Executive Committee is composed of 11 members, each with a 3-year term. All EC members need to have a willingness to commit a proportion of time
to ISB activities. Minimally, this involves attending monthly
teleconference meetings (1 hour in length) and following up on any
action points from meetings, as well as promoting the ISB's activity to
members and non-members. Examples of activities performed by EC members
include reviewing micro-grant and fellowship submissions, preparing
calls for hosting Biocuration meetings, preparing materials for ISB
election, monitoring ISB mail and website. There are specific positions
such as Chair, Secretary and Treasurer that will require a larger time
commitment.
The election of five members of the ISB EC will be held from September 25 - October 02, 2023.
Being a member of the Executive
Committee is a great way to become directly involved with the work of
our society, and contribute to the decisions that are taken on behalf of
the biocuration community. We would like to encourage all members
of the biocuration community to consider running for election.
