you interested in helping run the NPSS? The NPSS AdCom (Administrative
Committee) is the body that “runs” the NPSS, which includes
setting the policies for all of the conferences and publications
that the NPSS sponsors. Each year we hold elections for approximately
one quarter of the sixteen elected AdCom positions. This summer
we will be holding elections for AdCom members elected from three
NPSS communities: Plasma Science (the community that puts on ICOPS),
Nuclear Medical and Imaging Sciences (the community that puts on
MIC), and Transnational (a geographically-based rather than technically-based
community). These are four-year terms that begin on January 1, 2009.
In general, the requirements are that you are a member of both the
IEEE and the NPSS (which basically includes everybody who receives
this Newsletter) and that you have an interest in one of those three
technical areas. If you are interested in running for one of these
positions, you must let me know (wwmoses@lbl.gov)
by June 1 of this year. You will be asked to submit a 200-word biography
plus a 200-word position statement. Please feel free to contact
me if you have any questions or need more information.
