Call for Nominations for ABR Board of Trustees

By Matthew B. Podgorsak, PhD, ABR Board of Trustees Chair

2023;17(5):5

According to the ABR Bylaws, the Board of Trustees is a “multidisciplinary body that advances the quality, relevance and effectiveness of the ABR’s assessments for certification.” Trustees are distributed among the four disciplines certified by the ABR: diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology/diagnostic radiology, medical physics, and radiation oncology.

We are currently seeking nominations for Trustee positions in diagnostic medical physics, radiation oncology, interventional radiology/diagnostic radiology, pediatric radiology, neuroradiology, and cardiothoracic imaging. The term for new Trustees will begin in October 2025. The initial term is three years, and Trustees may be reappointed to serve for up to eight total years.

Nominees are expected to be professionally active and well-respected among their peers. A nominee must be 10 years or more post-certification and have been an active ABR volunteer within the last five years. Participation in ABR’s Continuing Certification (formerly Maintenance of Certification, MOC) program is required. Those not currently enrolled in Continuing Certification are required to enroll before beginning service.

Experience in education and training is desirable but not required. Nominees must be serious and independent thinkers. The ABR recognizes the value of diverse perspectives that might be offered by individuals of different races, ethnicities, and genders. The ABR will consider nominees from all types of employment environments, including private practice, community hospitals, and academic practices.

The time commitment necessary to fulfill the responsibilities of the Trustee role is significant, as are the rewards associated with the appointment.

For more information, please contact the ABR at information@theabr.org. Interested candidates may submit a curriculum vitae along with a letter of interest of less than two pages to cmoreno@theabr.org by November 15, 2024.
