The IMP Board
The IMP Board has two main functions. The first is to represent the community in broad terms. We aim to have variation across the board members in terms of countries, gender and age. The second main function of the board is to maintain existing IMP institutions and develop new ones. For example, the board provides an advisory role for the main conference and for IMP Asia, the LinkedIn site, and not least, the website. Through 2 PhD representatives, the Board has recently launched an early-career initiative, IMPEC.
Current board members include Enrico Baraldi, Elizabeth Edgal, Simone Guercini, Debbie Harrison, Malena Havenvid, Annika Laine, Antonella La Rocca, Helen McGrath, Chris Medlin, Kristin B. Munksgaard, Frans Prenkert, Milena Ratajczak-Mrozek, Catherine Sutton-Brady, Matin Taheriruh, Pauliina Ulkuniemi, Judy Zolkiewski.
Debbie Harrison is the current board chairman.
The main way to become a board member is through being a conference host. If you would like to assist a board member in maintaining and developing the IMP institutions, please get in touch!
