Nominate a Candidate to Serve on the 2023/2024 Users' Executive Committee
The LCLS Users' Organization (LCLS UO) provides an organized framework and independent vehicle for interaction between the scientists who are interested in using the Linac Coherent Light Source (the users) and LCLS/SLAC Management. The LCLS UO is broadly concerned with representing the interests of the LCLS users to SLAC management, to facilitate the availability and effective use of LCLS for the research community.
The LCLS Users' Executive Committee (LCLS UEC) is the formal organizational unit of the LCLS UO. LCLS UEC members are elected by the members of the LCLS user community. The UEC communicates the needs and desires of users regarding LCLS operating policies, use of LCLS, user support, and other relevant issues of concern to those engaged in research at this facility.
LCLS UEC members serve a three-year term, beginning and ending in October when the annual elections are held. The person elected UEC Chair is asked to serve on the committee for two additional years to facilitate continuity of LCLS UEC activities. This year we are seeking nominations for:
1 Representative in Biology (BIO)
3 Representatives in Atomic, Molecular and Optical Science (AMO)
1 Representative in Materials Science - Hard Condensed Matter (HCM)
1 Representative in Methods, Instrumentation, and XFEL Source Capabilities (M&I)
2 Representatives in Matter in Extreme Conditions (MEC)
Deadline
Nominations will be accepted until 5 pm Pacific time on Wednesday, July 26, 2023.
