Dear INFORMS Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to apply to be a prospective session chair for the Public and Societal Operations Research (PSOR) cluster at the upcoming INFORMS Annual Conference (October 26th - 29th 2025, in Atlanta, Georgia). The PSOR section is dedicated to doing good with good OR and advancing the use of OR/MS to improve the human condition. Your efforts in organizing past sessions have been invaluable, and we hope you will consider contributing again this year.
Due to space constraints, each PSOR member may chair only one session, and only current PSOR members are eligible to serve as session chairs. Please ensure your membership is active before submitting your application.
To be considered as a session chair, please submit your application through the following form: https://bit.ly/PSORsc25
Our internal deadline for applications is March 31st. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. Thank you for your continued support of PSOR—we truly appreciate your time and dedication to making this track a success!
