Fellows and Senior Fellows

Fellows distinguish themselves in a variety of ways including path-breaking contributions to the cell stress responses and molecular chaperones field. In addition, Fellows further contribute to the development of our field through service as senior editors and reviewing editors of Cell Stress & Chaperones, as contributors of papers to our journal, as officers and councilors on the Executive Council, and as organizers of CSSI congress, symposia and workshops. There is no single path to becoming a Fellow since many different combinations of service are possible. The designation Senior Fellow further recognizes exceptional service to the field and CSSI by serving as officers and councilors, organizers of Congresses and contributors to Cell Stress & Chaperones journal as authors, reviewers and editors.  Both Senior Fellows and Fellows are authorized to use the abbreviation FCSSI in their professional signature blocks.

The Senior Fellows nominate all Fellows for consideration by the Executive Council.

CSSI members, whether they are Fellows or not, may put forward names for the Senior Fellows to consider for nomination as either Fellows or Senior Fellows. The General Secretary (Helen Neumann) of the CSSI will assist in this process including receiving the names of members put forward for consideration.
