As we prepare for the 2019 Annual Meeting of the International Neuroethics Society in October, the Nominating Committee will make recommendations to the Board of Directors for those Board members whose terms are expiring or who will not continue his/her term.
The
INS Nominating Committee is charged with the all-important task of recommending individuals to serve on the Board of Directors to replace those who have resigned, let their membership lapse, had their terms end, or have otherwise left the Board. The Board then meets and votes on new Board members.
The 15-member
Board of Directors serves for staggered three-year terms. Five will be replaced or continued this year: Jennifer Chandler, Hank Greely, Steve Hyman, Judy Illes and Paul Root Wolpe.
There will be several open seats this year, so please submit your suggestions by Thursday, June 27 at 5:00pm EDT. We want to be able to consider a diverse and broad range of candidates from all the individual, disciplinary, and geographic backgrounds that make up our membership.
Send your confidential suggestions for people to fulfill the important duties of moving the Society forward to Karen Graham (
kgraham@neuroethicssociety.org). Be sure to include a CV as well as a background paragraph or link to information about the individual. You can suggest someone or nominate yourself.
Thank you for sending your suggestions, and we look forward to seeing you in Chicago.
Joseph J. Fins, MD
Chair, Nominating Committee
