Bruce Overmier elected to ICSU board
Dear Colleagues,
Bruce Overmier has been elected to the board of a major international organization for science.
The International Council of Science ('ICSU', see www.ICSU.org) is an organization of 29 International Unions of Science and 114 National Academies of Science or Ministries of Science. It organizes multi-discipline international programs in science. In October, Bruce Overmier was elected to the Executive Board; the Executive Board is composed of 6 officers and 8 ordinary members. Bruce is the only “social scientist� on the Board. Nobel Prize winning chemist, Yuan Lee was elected President- Elect at the same meeting.
We congratulate Bruce on election to this important post and thank him for his international work on behalf of science (including social science.)
