Application Cycle

SIR and SIR Foundation encourage members to apply to join an education or clinically focused committee, or one of the many other committees/volunteer groups that fit an area of expertise or interest. These committees offer members opportunities to influence the practice and study of medicine, network with colleagues in similar fields of expertise and participate in leadership activities. Annually, the SIR and SIR Foundation hold an open call for committee volunteers in August. Please submit your application for consideration in this application cycle. If you have questions about the committee appointment process, feel free to contact volunteer@sirweb.org or learn more through our volunteer informational page. 

Committee Terms and Commitment

Members can serve on a committee for a maximum of two consecutive three-year terms (up to six years). Commitment varies based on level of activity of each committee. All committee members must attend volunteer group meetings and participate in conference calls. In-person meetings are usually held during the Annual Scientific Meeting. We ask that members who currently serve on three or more committees/volunteer groups refrain from completing an application form to allow other members to have an opportunity to serve.
