The Molecular Foundry User Executive Committee (UEC) is soliciting nominations for interested members to serve the broader user community on issues of critical importance to the Foundry. Serving on the UEC is a responsibility that comes with the benefit of being an influential voice at the Foundry! Elected candidates will serve three-year terms, beginning in January 2022. Responsibilities, at minimum, include participating in monthly meetings (in person or teleconference) and being actively engaged with the Foundry user community. We also seek candidates who are eager to take on leadership opportunities and become more involved in the committee to benefit the user community.
This year, we specifically encourage faculty/PI, post-doc, and graduate student candidates in order to represent the diversity of user affiliations. Individuals who are current or former users of the Foundry, have recently submitted proposals, or have served as proposal reviewers are qualified for service on the UEC.
Please nominate yourself or encourage your colleagues to do so by submitting your name, a short statement (~2 sentences), affiliation, job title, and the primary Facility you identify yourself with using the Google Form below by December 3rd, at 11:59 PM. Voting will be done by all Foundry users in a general election to be held in December.
More information can be found in our Charter & By-Laws.
