Dear Colleagues,

The DBIO Nominations Committee is seeking your assistance in identifying a diverse slate of outstanding candidates to run for leadership positions within the DBIO Executive Committee.

Current positions open for nomination:
  • Vice Chair, 4 years - through Chair Line
  • 2x Members at Large, 3 years
  • Early Career Member, 2 years
Elected candidates will begin their terms at the conclusion of the 2023 March Meeting.

Current officers are listed on the DBIO homepage, as are officer duties and responsibilities within the unit bylaws and operating procedures. The DBIO Executive Committee is a great way to serve the broader biological physics community. We run the DBIO program at March Meeting, oversee the selection of relevant APS awards & honors, and organize numerous community engagement efforts. We need individuals dedicated to strengthening the biological physics community to step up to keep our community strong.

Deadline for nominations is September 1, 2022 or until candidates are identified.

Nominations should be submitted using this submission form. Self-nominations are welcome. If you have any questions, please contact the DBIO Chair, Margaret Cheung mscheung@uw.edu.

Thank you!

DBIO Chair
Margaret Cheung

The membership of APS is diverse and global, and the Executive Committees of APS Units should reflect that diversity so that all voices are involved and empowered to have an impact on our community. Nominations of members belonging to groups traditionally underrepresented in physics, such as women, LGBT+ scientists, scientists who are Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC), disabled scientists, scientists from institutions with limited resources, and scientists from outside the United States, are especially encouraged. Students and early career members are also encouraged to participate in all unit leadership committees.
