March 16, 2022 by Pam Borghardt

The lifeblood of the AIRR Community is its members and others who join us, typically on a volunteer and uncompensated basis, to advance the AIRR Community mission to standardize, analyze and share AIRR-seq data.

  • Mentoring junior or trainee members
  • Assisting with organizing meetings, publications, or other communications 
  • Contributing to the AIRR Data Commons, e.g. substantial reviewing or data deposits
  • Other tasks that, in the opinion of AIRR Community leaders, constitute selfless acts of citizenship that reflect our core mission and values

The AIRR Community Service Prize(s) recipient(s) will be announced and awarded at the Gala Dinner during the AIRR Community Meeting VI in May 2022.

Nomination Criteria:

  • Must be a Member to nominate
  • Nominate more than one nominee
