Reviewers are needed for the RESNA 2000 Scientific Papers. A person is allowed to review for both categories if s/he chooses. The topic area that a SIG is assigned to means that a reviewer might review a submission that falls into that topic area. The deadline for identifying reviewers was October 25th, evidently stuff happened and we now need to identify reviewers quickly. Please carefully note all of the dates for the papers to be sent out and the dates that the reviews are due back to Susie Leone.
If you would like to participate in reviews of scientific papers, please contact Jack Winters at winters@cua.edu or Susie Leone at sleone@resna.org
Deadlines for Papers:
Dec. 10th - Scientific papers due to RESNA
Dec. 17th - papers go out to reviewers
Jan. 10th - completed reviews due back to Susie at RESNA
