Interactions

​In order to include the viewpoints of our members in training in Society decision-making and Congress planning, the IS-MPMI Board of Directors (BOD) would like to add two graduate student or postdoc members to the board. The term length of these positions will be two years (Congress to Congress), although the first positions will be held only until the 2021 Congress. The BOD can vote to extend the position for an additional two years if the requirements of the position are still met (applicant is still a graduate student or postdoc). 

Requirements/duties of the position:

• Maintain membership in IS-MPMI
• Contribute to Society leadership, decision making, and Congress planning by participating in month or bi-monthly BOD teleconferences and follow up communications, averaging less than 2 hours per month 
• Assist in developing and soliciting content for IS-MPMI Interactions

Nominations (self-nominations are welcome) will be accepted until March 1, 2020.

Nominations sent to President Mary Beth Mudgett should include:

• name
• current position 
• contact information 
• and a short (5-6 sentence) description of nominee and why you would be a good addition to the BOD.
