Questions? Contact APS Nominations Committee members with questions.
Nominees who meet the basic nomination criteria (above) will be approached by the Nominations Committee to submit an application. This is a variation on past practice when nominees were contacted to determine if they would be willing to stand for election and if they accepted, they were asked to submit a bio and vision statement for publication in Phytopathology News. We’re just turning the process around a little bit, asking for the bio earlier in the process to save some time and build a talent pool for the future.
