Associate Departmental Representatives
Associate Departmental Representatives (ADRs) are student or postdoctoral members of the CSBBCS / SCSCCC (the Society). They are appointed annually in order to increase the involvement of associate members in the Society and to mentor the next generation of Society leaders. ADRs help spread the word about all aspects of the Society (e.g., what the Society does, what awards are available from the Society), thereby increasing the participation of the next generation of researchers in all Society activities (e.g., attending the annual conference and Annual General Meeting, by contributing to advocacy campaigns).
