Call for Nominations

The USNCCr is soliciting nominations for candidates for membership to the Committee for the triennium 2004 - 2006. It is our desire to have as wide a representation as possible from the research areas that constitute crystallography and from the interdisciplinary areas that interact with crystallography. Anyone may send in a nomination. Please include the name and address of your nominee along with a short bio describing their association with crystallography.

Members of the nominating committee are listed below. Send your suggestions to anyone on the committee
