Each year MNRS asks its members to nominate individuals for positions of volunteer leadership. As a member-driven organization, our nomination and election process is essential to the ongoing vitality and viability of the organization. It is for this reason that we look to the MNRS members to provide us with qualified candidates to be considered to serve.

These terms for these positions will begin at the 2026 MNRS Annual Research Conference.

If you have any questions, please reach out to the MNRS Executive Office at info@mnrs.org.
