The Chair of the Education Research Committee, Prof Clare Morris, would like to bring to your attention vacancies that have arisen on the ERC.
There are 3 places available on the committee from 30th November 2018 for a period of 3 years, with an opportunity to be re-elected for a second term thereafter.
These positions are open to any member of ASME who wishes to self-nominate. We are looking for people who:
- are research enthusiasts who wish to develop medical education research and its communities

• details of your own academic background including any education research qualifications, publications etc.
• details of your area of interest within medical education research
• a short statement supporting your application detailing what you would bring/add to the ERC Committee.
International applications will be considered, particularly if the applicants are willing to work electronically on assessing grants etc. Attendance for international members at the ERC meeting of the ASM would be encouraged.
