Seeking Social Media Champions
Looking to be more engaged in the Society? The easiest way is to join the conversation online! Share you work, discuss with fellow members and radiation experts.
We are looking for social media "champions" that would be willing to facilitate conversations through the RRS channels. If this is
of interest to you, please reach out to Lindsey Keeley at lindsey@ameetingbydesign.com.
If you don't already, be sure to follow RRS!
