Program Coordinators

The Program Coordinators are local partners actively participating in the POSEIDO network and in the development of the POSEIDO debates, consensus conferences and original research programs. The Program Coordinators also serve as interface between the Board of Directors and the study groups constituting the POSEIDO Scientific International Research and Education Network (SIREN).

The minimum requirements to become a Program Coordinator are to be a member and a representative of an institution or scientific society already member of the POSEIDO, and to participate in an active study group joining the POSEIDO SIREN. There is no limit related to academic activity or h-index.
