2013-2014 - PAW's executive candidates
Dear Western Postdocs,
We are happy to announce we have received nominations for all executive positions of the Postdoctoral Association at Western (PAW) for the academic year 2013-2014. Their names, affiliations and nominated positions are:
Blake Butler (Physiology & Pharmacology) – Presidential candidate
Jiro Inoue (Robarts Research Institute) – VP internal candidate
Rebecca MacDonald (Biology) – VP External & CAPS representative candidate
Catherine Martel (Biology) – VP communications and events candidate
Onur Ozturk (Richard Ivey School of Business) – VP finance
Lorina Naci (Brain and Mind Institute) – Secretary
Please find their statements here.
All candidates have been acclaimed by the outgoing executive committee and have our full support. To formally elect them we also need the voice of the general membership. Since there is only one candidate per positions, they will assume those roles, unless there are objections from the membership.
If you object to any of the nominees, please send an email directly to the current President of PAW - Katrina Laurent (kiglic2@uwo.ca) and the secretary of PAW - Kalin Penev (kpenev2@uwo.ca). We will get back to you and to the candidate(s), without revealing your name, to try to address any issues. The due date for objection submission is: May 24, 2013.
