Prior to quoting or publishing any such information presented at an Assembly in any publication, written or electronic (including social media), written approval is to be obtained first from the contributing member.

Application

An applicant can be anyone whose research, activities and/or network will contribute in a positive way to the development of the research within CeMEB.

After that, the applicant will be invited to send in a Letter of Interest to the Steering Committee. Alternatively, an applicant can send a Letter of Interest first and state their plans to join the next Assembly. A Letter of Interest contains a short description of both expectations on CeMEB and contributions to CeMEB, together with a short CV and publication list. 

After acceptance by the CeMEB Steering Committee, the applicant will be requested to sign the Agreement.

Minimum requirements
