    Each section needs 1 director, which will supervise is section, ensuring the smooth running of its operations. They will be granted limited moderator power to help them in their task.

    They should be very knowledgeable in their field, and act as a support for recherchers looking for help. They have to do their own research topic as well.

    Please PM if you're interested in this position. It is a position of great importance so I will be very picky on who I choose for the positions. We may employ a rotation strategy for the position.

    I am looking for more research directors.

    Right now there is only one, Mats, and i'm not sure how much longer he is active.

    The responsability of research directors is to supervise a specific section of the RD. This includes approving new projects and creating their threads, spearheading projects and stimulate researchers to be active, as well as review articles for publication. The position of RD comes with moderating powers to assist in those functions.

    We pretty much need a director for all 5 sections right now.

    alright, but are we allowed to moderate the other sections if the need arises?

    I don't see the need to moderate in RD, the posts should be kept in their place just to avoid confusion that may result, and spam/flames in RD shouldn't happen at all.

    moderating in this case usually means editing first post to add more info, topic title, merging threads, splitting and the like.

    it's not so much for moderating as for keeping track of topics and projects and such

    I'm pretty sure I'm the only one working in the pens and mods sections so I'd be down to man up that section.
