The DRS would like to welcome ten new members to the International Advisory Council: Paola Bertola, Emily Corrigan-Kavanagh, Emilia Duarte, Davide Fassi, Li Jönsson, Lee Jung Joo, Fernando Del Caro Secomandi, Luca Simeone, Emmanuel Tsekleves and Federico Vaz. The International Advisory Council (IAC) is the main advisory body within the DRS Governance Structure and works with a 5-person Executive Board, formed from the International Advisory Council, in delivering the mission and aims of the society. The IAC operates through working groups, online meetings and liaising with the Executive Board, throughout the year, and aims (when conditions allow), to meet in-person once a year, including at the DRS biennial conference.
