Working Groups

A working group (WG) is a group of experts working together to achieve specified goals. The groups are domain-specific and focus on discussion or activity around a specific subject area.

The objective of a WG is to promote a specific scientific topic and/or strategic aspect considered to be relevant for E‐MRS. It must operate solely for the benefit of the Society. The benefits and effectiveness of the WG will be subject to regular assessment by the Executive Committee, which may make recommendations for an extension of its scope, the maintenance of its terms of reference or the termination of the WG.
