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
