Science Committee Chair Call for Applications

Dear INS Members and Colleagues,

We are writing to announce an opening for the Chair of the INS Science Committee.

Dr. Lena Dobson’s distinguished tenure as Chair concludes this February. We extend our sincere thanks to Dr. Dobson for her exceptional contributions and leadership during her term.

To ensure a seamless transition, we are actively soliciting nominations. We expect some excellent candidacies from current committee members—guaranteeing continuity—but we are also committed to an open and public selection process for leadership roles whenever possible. Our aim is to invite participation from the wider membership, leveraging varied experiences from other institutions to enrich our standards and strategic goals. This openness is vital for ensuring rigorous self-evaluation and welcoming innovative perspectives.

If you know someone who would be an ideal candidate, please ask her/him to submit their nomination to ins@the-ins.org (Biosketcth, and a letter of interest describing experience and vision of the Project to be developed). Being an INS member and payment of dues for 2026 is required. Deadline is December 30th.

Many thanks in advance!

Natalia Ojeda
