CEDAR email: CEDAR Science Steering Committee Nominations

[Lay, Erin Hoffmann]

Dear CEDAR community,
This year three of our regular CEDAR Science Steering Committee (CSSC) Members (CMs), the International Liaison (IL), and one Student Representative (SR) will be cycling off.  The CSSC is responsible for periodic checks on the community science progress and direction, in coordination with the CEDAR community. The CSSC organizes the scientific content of the annual CEDAR Workshop and connects with other programs. Recently, CSSC advocacy on behalf of the CEDAR community has been essential as the research landscape has been changing quickly. Being part of the CSSC is a great opportunity to be involved with and influential to this vibrant science community. More information on the CSSC can be found here:
https://cedarscience.org/science-steering-committee

If you are interested in serving on the CSSC, or would like to nominate someone who you think would be interested, please send the following information to Dr. Lay and Dr. England:

  *   Name and contact information
  *   A brief CV that includes their research specialties and community involvement
  *
A statement describing why you would like to serve (self-nomination) or why they should be on (nomination) the CSSC


We had many great nominations from last year and we were not able to accept everyone onto the committee. We welcome resubmission, so please re-nominate yourself or your nominee if you are still interested. In addition, new nominations and self-nominations are appreciated.

CSSC CMs serve for 3-year terms.  They must be based at a US institution at the time of their appointment.  While serving, their responsibilities include:

  *   Attending CSSC meetings, including the annual CEDAR workshop,
  *   Leading and serving on committee efforts designed to support the CEDAR community, and
  *   Identifying new ways to support the people and science in the CEDAR community


International Liaisons (ILs) serve for 3-year terms. They are a voting CSSC member and their responsibilities include the above, plus:

  *   Representing the interests of CEDAR members who live and work outside of the United States of America
  *   Providing a line of communication between other communities whose interests and science intersect with those of the CEDAR community.

Note: To balance international representation, it is desired that the IL should cycle between representatives from Africa, the Americas (non-USA), Asia, Europe, and Oceania. When choosing a new IL, preference will be given to nominations from geographic regions who have not been represented by the prior two ILs. Past two ILs have been from South America (Peru) and Asia (Japan).
CSSC SRs serve for 2-year terms.  They must be a graduate student in good standing at a US-based institution of higher learning at their time of appointment, have successfully passed the exams needed to propose a dissertation topic at their institution, and have no plans to graduate within the first year of their term as a SR.  Their responsibilities include:

  *   Attending CSSC meetings, including the annual CEDAR workshop
  *   Organizing the CEDAR workshop Student Day
  *   Serving on committee efforts designed to support the CEDAR community

Sincerely,
Erin Lay (elay at lanl.gov<mailto:elay at lanl.gov>)
