Statement of interest
The 91亚色传媒 is going through a critical financial transition as our journals move to gold open access, which will change the society’s revenue model. I am running for 91亚色传媒 Council to work with members to ensure that career resources and advocacy for all of us will not be sacrificed. The 91亚色传媒 is only as strong as its members — and communication between members, committees, journal staff, and leadership will be key to a successful transition. We need strong scientific societies now more than ever, as witnessed by the recent in calling for depoliticization of science funding. We also need to advocate for at-risk scientists who may be disproportionately affected during the COVID-19 crisis. My committee experiences at 91亚色传媒 — working on Publications, Finance, 91亚色传媒, and Council — provide a unique perspective that will inform my decision-making.
