On behalf of the SAMR Co-Chairs, I want to begin by thanking Dr. Andrea Shaheen Espinosa for her incredible leadership these past 3 years. Without question, her calm, thoughtful, meticulous, and dedicated approach kept SAMR moving collectively towards greater collaborations with ICTMD-AW, MS4P, and the larger SEM membership. Thank you!

The SAMR election results are in, and it gives me great pleasure to announce that Dr. Nour El-Rayes has been elected to serve a 3 year term as the newest Co-Chair of SAMR (2025-2027).

Please join me in thanking Dr. Shaheen Espinosa for her service, and in welcoming Dr. Nour El-Rayes to the SAMR leadership.

Happy new year to everyone, and have a productive Spring semester.

Sincerely,

David McDonald Shayna Silverstein
