Each nomination must be endorsed by three regular VSS members. One person should email the nomination to  <mailto:shauneywilson at visionsciences.org> shauneywilson at visionsciences.org with a cc: to the other two nominators. The other two nominators should indicate their endorsement by forwarding the nominating email to  <mailto:shauneywilson at visionsciences.org> shauneywilson at visionsciences.org.
