The North Pacific Research Board (NPRB) is seeking nominations to fill
one vacancy on its Science Panel. The Board is seeking an individual
with expertise in social science.
The Science Panel helps shape NPRB's scientific program by advising the
Board on science planning and identification of research priorities;
review of proposals and technical evaluations received by the Board; and
identification, development, collection, and evaluation of statistical,
biological, oceanographic, ecological, economic, social, and other
scientific information relevant to the Board's mission.
The Science Panel schedules two regular meetings each year. The Board
covers the costs of travel, food, and lodging to attend panel meetings
and, if desired, the annual Alaska Marine Science Symposium. Members are
appointed for four-year terms, with a maximum of two sequential terms.
Nominations should include contact information, a one to two page
curriculum vitae, and three letters of reference. The letters should
come from people who have worked with the nominee on a range of relevant
research activities. The list of nominees will be reviewed by a
nominating committee created by the Board, and the committee's
recommendations will be forwarded to the Board for a final decision.
Please submit nominations and self-nominations to the Board to Cynthia
Suchman by email (cynthia.suchman [at] nprb.org) or by regular mail:
North Pacific Research Board
1007 West 3rd Avenue, Suite 100
Anchorage, Alaska 99501
Appointment of the new member of the Science Panel is expected by the
end of February. This will allow time for the new member to prepare for
and participate in the panel's next meeting, scheduled for 10-12 April
2012.
Nomination deadline: Friday, 13 January 2012.
