Dear CSE Colleagues,
Carissa Gilman, CSE President
I want to extend my thanks to everyone who has reached out to express interest in serving on the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Task Force. It’s not too late to be a part of this initiative, so if you would like to participate, please email me at carissa.gilman@cancer.org.
In addition, there are many other ways to get involved with CSE. If you would like to help shape the Annual Meeting, the 2021 Program Co-Chairs, Brittany Swett and Emma Shumeyko, encourage you to join the Program Committee. The Annual Meeting program is of vital importance to our membership, and we rely on the ideas, dedication, hard work, and creativity of this committee to put together an exceptional program each year. All committee members will have the opportunity to moderate or organize at least one session and will be asked to attend monthly committee meetings (via Zoom) and provide regular status updates on session progress.
The next read for the CSE book club will be American Sherlock: Murder, Forensics, and the Birth of American CSI by Kate Winkler Dawson. Reading of the book will begin June 17, with discussion beginning at the beginning of July, so if you haven’t signed up, please go to Goodreads to create an account and then search for the “Council of Science Editors Book Club” group. The book club will be exploring some new ways to bring us all together for discussion of the book, so I hope you’ll join in.
Finally, the CSE Publication Certificate Program is happy to announce that we will be allowing new participants in the program to include the recent 2020 virtual meeting as part of their program requirements. This offer is valid for new participants who sign up by July 1, 2020, so don’t delay.
As always, the latest CSE comings and goings are available via our social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn) and our listserv (csel@lists.councilscienceeditors.org).
Thank you for being a part of our community. Please reach out to me with your ideas for how we can better serve our members in these ever-changing times.
