The Coalition of State Rheumatology Organizations (CSRO) is currently recruiting a rheumatology fellow to join its Board of Directors as the Fellow-at-Large.
Serving as a non-voting member of CSRO's Board of Directors, the Fellow-at-Large acts as a liaison between CSRO and rheumatology fellowship programs nationwide. They are appointed for a one-year term from May 1 through April 30 of the following year, with the option to renew their board service for a second term if applicable.
Activities and expectations of the Fellow-at-Large include, but are not limited to:
The Fellow-at-Large will be expected to attend CSRO’s two annual in-person events, which coincide with the two in-person Board of Directors meetings:
Travel expenses for all CSRO-related events will be reimbursed.
To be eligible for the Fellow-at-Large position, candidates must be a rheumatology fellow during their term(s) of service. Therefore, candidates will ideally be in the first year of their fellowship program.
The Board of Directors is comprised of individuals from across the United States, and candidates can be located in any state or territory. While a background in advocacy is not needed or expected, candidates should have an interest in learning about advocacy.
Candidates should submit a letter outlining their interest in advocacy and why they would like to join the CSRO Board of Directors, along with a CV or resume, via email to CSRO Executive Director Leslie Del Ponte on or before Thursday, March 27.
