The ESVS Guidelines Steering Committee is planning to start the writing process for new clinical practice guidelines on Amputations and is seeking an EVST representative to join the writing committee. The goal is to have one European EVST representative appointed for each of these guideline writing committees following an application process.
The selected EVST member will have equal standing with other Writing Committee members. While there are no strict clinical or academic requirements, candidates must demonstrate previous experience in academic writing and research, as well as a personal interest in the topic. These points will be considered when reviewing the applications, along with relevant detail of any involvement applicants have had in EVST activities. Applications will be reviewed, and the top three candidates presented to the ESVS Guidelines Committees and Chairs of each guideline for approval.
The guideline writing process will take an average of 18 months (but can extend beyond this), and includes four pre-scheduled key meetings (three kick-off meetings online, a follow-up meeting face-to-face) as well as regular, ad-hoc, catch-up meetings, with mandatory attendance. The travelling and accommodation expenses will be covered by the ESVS. Being a writing committee member of these guidelines is an educative experience and you should be prepared to work according to a schedule.
To apply for this position, please complete the form, submitting both a CV and a cover letter below before 12:00, midday (CET) on Monday 6th May. Should you need any more information on the topic, please email phoebe@esvs.org.
Applications for this position are now closed.
