Application is now closed

EAN RRFS members can extend their involvement beyond scientific work by becoming part of the Panels Management Group (MG) as RRFS Representatives. This role provides the perfect platform not only to represent the interests of RRFS members but also offer a chance to actively engage in leadership activities and participate in various Panel engagements. Each panel is run by its own Management Group (MG), elected by the Panel members.

Being part of the MG allows RRFS Representatives to learn from experienced senior Management Group members, gaining valuable insights and expertise.
