As part of SNEB's strategic plan, our extensive engagement in national issues and the increase and growth of the journal, a new process for position papers has recently been approved.
Position papers provide a comprehensive discussion of SNEB's policy on one or more topics. Containing extensive background information and analysis, the position paper provides a more complete understanding of the issues and rationale for the positions(s) set forth by the organization.
Members are invited to send nominations for position paper topics relevant to SNEB. We are requesting your input in identifying the relevant and current issues SNEB should address. To have a position paper topic considered for this year, send your topic and a brief rationale to the position paper co-chairs, Marilyn Briggs, Ph.D., RD (mmbriggs@ucdavis.edu) and JNEB editor-in-chief Karen Chapman-Novakofski, Ph.D., RDN (kmc@illinois.edu) by Nov. 20. In the future, periodic calls for position paper topics will be sent.
The position paper committee will review each submitted topic and rationale and decide on topics that will be forwarded to the SNEB Board of Directors for vote. Once approved by the BOD, authors and reviewers will be invited. SNEB position papers will be peer reviewed and published in JNEB.
