Call for Applications: Resident and Fellow Participation on
ISMS Councils and Committees: Deadline April 26, 2010

Resident and fellow physician members have the opportunity to actively participate in the policy and decision‑making process of the Illinois State Medical Society. A resident physician serves as a voting member on each of the ISMS' major councils and committees. This representation is extremely important as all issues and concerns facing the medical profession are addressed initially at the council level. I hope you will seriously consider participating - we need our collective voice heard!  Here is a listing of each ISMS council and committee, which includes a brief listing of their respective areas of activity.

The official term for the ISMS resident representatives appointed to 2010/2011 ISMS councils/committees begins in June (June, 2010 - June, 2011). However, the selected representatives’ term on the ISMS RFS Governing Council will begin with the May meeting of the ISMS RFS Governing Council (to be announced).

If you are interested in serving on one of the councils or committees please complete the form indicating your interest and rank preferences. Send the form, your statement of interest and a current curriculum vitae by April 26, 2010, Attn: Nena Samardzija, ISMS RFS, 20 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 700, Chicago, IL  60602. To expedite, please fax the materials to Nena Samardzija, ISMS, (312) 782-2023 or email to nenasamardzija@isms.org.

ISMS RFS leadership will review all submitted statements of interest for council service. If you submit a statement of interest, your attendance at the next ISMS‑RFS Governing Council Meeting is highly encouraged. You will be notified of meeting date and time. For more information, call (312) 580-2466 or send an e-mail to rfs@isms.org.
