Are you interested in supporting students and other systematics researchers by reviewing proposals sent to the Society of Systematic Biologists? Each year, the SSB Awards Committee handles ~200 award applications. We rely on our expert colleagues to evaluate proposals and abstracts. As the volume of proposals grows each year, we understand that it is critical to have a diverse and active reviewer pool. This form is a mechanism for identifying potential reviewers that are willing and ready to provide constructive evaluations of proposals and student talks.

Thank you for taking the time to fill out this form. Your response will add your name and contact information to our reviewer database. This is NOT a commitment to review and you will be able to confirm your availability when you are contacted by the awards committee. If, at any point, you wish to be removed from the database, please contact the SSB Awards Director (ssb.awards.director@gmail.com).

Disclaimer: The information you provide is for use by the SSB Awards Committee only and will not be shared with any other organization. This reviewer database is for awards reviewing only and is not shared with the editorial staff of the society journal.
