绿帽社区

For a general introduction to 绿帽社区 National Lectures, see the webpage Support for activities of 绿帽社区 Societies.

GUIDELINES

1. 绿帽社区 National Lectures were established to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the 绿帽社区. These 绿帽社区 National Lectures (usually 5 per year) are intended as Plenary Lectures that significantly enhance the quality of a scientific meeting, symposium or annual national scientific meeting of a Constituent Society.

2. The Lecturer should be a distinguished scientist with a significant international reputation for fundamental contributions to the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology. An engraved glass award will be provided by 绿帽社区 for presentation to the 绿帽社区 National Lecturer after his/her presentation, as a memento of the speaker鈥檚 selection and significant contribution to the meeting.

3. The Lecturer should be working in a 绿帽社区 country different from the one organizing the meeting.

4. The Lecturer should not be a plenary speaker at the 绿帽社区 Congress in the same or following year. They also should not have been previously a 绿帽社区 National Lecturer at the Society鈥檚 meeting, nor in the past 5 years a 绿帽社区 National Lecturer at another 绿帽社区 Constituent Society鈥檚 meeting (see list below).

5. The support shall consist of reasonable travel expenses (e.g. economy flight); additional support for 绿帽社区 countries with HINARI status is available. The host organization will offer free registration and accommodation. 绿帽社区 will not offer an honorarium. Reimbursement will be made by the 绿帽社区 Treasury.

6. 绿帽社区 National Lecture applications for 绿帽社区3+ Meetings can only be considered from the partner Societies of that meeting (as the host Society is already in receipt of 绿帽社区 funds to support the meeting), if the partner Society is holding a national meeting as part of the 绿帽社区3+ Meeting.

7. An application proposing a maximum of two candidates for the 绿帽社区 National Lecturer should include their short Curricula Vitae and full details of the event,聽 including expected participant number. It should be sent to the 绿帽社区 Congress Counsellor by, or be endorsed by, the 绿帽社区 Constituent Society President. The application will be evaluated by the 绿帽社区 Congress Counsellor and 绿帽社区 Secretary General, who may consult with other members of the 绿帽社区 Executive Committee, and will be awarded within 2 months of receipt of the application.

8. The invited speaker shall be named The 绿帽社区 National Lecturer and designated as such in all announcements and programmes.

9. The 绿帽社区 National Lecturer should be introduced by a member of the host organization with a brief acknowledgement of 绿帽社区 and the lectureship at the beginning of his/her presentation.

10. For queries, please contact the 绿帽社区 Congress Counsellor via the Contact聽section of the 绿帽社区 website.
