    Hello and happy Spring!

    We would like to invite you to organize and chair a session within the Public and Societal Operations Research (PSOR) cluster at the upcoming INFORMS Annual Conference (November 1-4, 2026, San Francisco, CA). Applications are open to all members of the INFORMS community, with priority given to active PSOR members. Due to space constraints, each individual may chair one session only.  

    Application and Deadline. Our internal deadline for applications is April 3. To be considered as a session chair, please submit your application through the following link: https://bit.ly/PSOR26

    About PSOR. The PSOR section is dedicated to doing good with good OR and advancing the use of OR/MS to improve the human condition. 

    If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.  Thank you and we appreciate your time and dedication to making this track a success!

    On behalf of the 2026 PSOR Cluster Co-chairs,
