In accordance with the EHDN Constitution, biennial elections for the Executive Committee and Scientific and Bioethics Advisory Committee are now open.

The Executive Committee governs EHDN, directs and oversees its activities, and sets the network’s strategic direction, as outlined in Article 4 of the Constitution. Election presents an important opportunity for members to contribute to the future direction of the network. Four new appointments will be made in 2026.

The Scientific and Bioethics Advisory Committee, established under Article 5 of the constitution, meets regularly to review research projects submitted to EHDN requiring access to data and biosamples, applications to the Lesley Jones Seed Fund, and clinical trial protocols submitted for EHDN endorsement. Seven committee positions will be available in 2026.

We warmly encourage nominations from engaged and motivated members. Individuals may nominate themselves or others; another EHDN regular member must second each nomination.

Nominations are now closed!

Voting will run from 1 June to 19 October 2026. More details on the candidates and how to vote will be announced shortly.

The results will be announced at the EHDN Clinical Research Congress in Krakow, Poland, 22–24 October 2026.
