We are pleased to announce the candidates for the positions on the Executive Committee (EC) that will become vacant in January 2025.
These individuals have been selected by the Election Committee (ELCOM) from the nominations put forward by EAS members. The selection process and criteria are outlined on our Society’s website and in our bylaws.
The Executive Committee is the elected governing body responsible for the management of the Society. Its members establish the scientific direction of the Society, develop strategic plans for EAS activities, and provide oversight of the EAS’s financial management.
Throughout the elections from June 1st to June 30th, 2024, all full individual EAS members will have the chance to actively participate in shaping the Society’s direction by casting their votes.
Election results will be announced in July 2024.
