Friends:
On behalf of the ICGI executive committee, I am opening nominations for ICGI officers. We request nominations for the open positions listed below. Those elected will serve as co-chair for 2 years followed by 2 years as chair (total of 4 year commitment).
2023-2025 1) ICGI Overall Co-Chair 2) Breeding and Applied Genomics Co-Chair 3) Comparative Genomics and Bioinformatics Co-Chair 4) Functional Genomics Co-Chair 5) Germplasm and Genetic Stocks Co-Chair 6) Structural Genomics Co-Chair
Please send your nominations to icgi.elections@gmail.commailto:icgi.elections@gmail.com by March 31, 2023. List the name, title, institution, and email for your nominee(s).
Nominee Eligibility according to ICGI By-Laws
Any “Professional” member of the ICGI is eligible to serve as an officer. A
“Professional” is deemed to be an individual holding an academic or governmental
scientific research position. Individuals actively engaged in obtaining an academic
degree or employed by a for-profit company are not eligible to serve as ICGI officers.
ICGI members can be nominated for only one position per election, but in
successive elections can be nominated for positions other than the one they
currently hold. While it will be possible to hold Chair and Co-chair positions
simultaneously, no single individual can be Chair of ICGI and of a Workgroup or
Chair of two different Workgroups simultaneously.
At the conclusion of this election, current ICGI Co-Chairs will become Chair for the next cycle (2023-2025) and are not eligible as nominees for the current election (listed below).
2023-2025 ICGI Overall Chair: Xianlong Zhang Breeding and Applied Genomics Chair: Warwick Stiller Comparative Genomics and Bioinformatics Chair: Lei Fang Functional Genomics Chair: Qian-Hao Zhu Germplasm and Genetic Stocks Chair: Xiongming Du Structural Genomics Chair: Peng Chee
Regards,
Todd
