[iaoa-general] IAOA Fellowship - Call for Nominations by Jan 21, 2024

[Kutz Oliver]

Dear ontology enthusiasts,

the IAOA [1] has established an award of honorary fellowships [2] in order to recognise distinguished scholars in the field of applied ontology.

IAOA Fellows will have contributed significantly and in a sustained manner to the field of applied ontology, for example by outstanding scientific achievements, which often goes hand-in-hand with their strong dedication and service to the community.

Their selection is subject to an annual process based on nominations from the community.

For 2024, we solicit nominations by January 21, 2024 (Sunday, UTC-12).

Please send nominations to [3] info at iaoa.org<mailto:info at iaoa.org>. Complete details on the process are specified in the IAOA's Fellowship Procedure [4], an excerpt of which describing the nomination requirements is copied below.

The 2024 selection committee consists of
- João Paulo A. Almeida, Federal University of Espirito Santo (UFES), Vitoria, Brazil
- Nicola Guarino, Laboratory for Applied Ontology (LOA), Trento, Italy
- Oliver Kutz, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy
- Deborah McGuinness, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, New York, USA
- Laure Vieu, Toulouse Institute for Computer Science Research (IRIT), France

We look forward to each nomination, with many thanks in advance for the effort!

Season's greetings and best regards,

Oliver Kutz
President, IAOA

< excerpt from [4] >
To nominate a person, a nominator sends a message to the committee that summarizes the main contributions of the nominee to applied ontology and argues why the nominee should be selected. The nomination should be seconded by at least one supporter. Among the nominator and the supporter(s), at least one should be an IAOA member. Self nominations are not allowed.

A nominee cannot be part of the selection committee. If that happens, the nominee will be given the option to reject the nomination or withdraw from the selection committee.
