Congratulations to Brazil's new Executive Committee, elected May 26 at the first DABR AGM and Elections Meeting held in five years, paving the way for DABR's reauthorization as an official Country Committee! Upon the completion of elections, Acting Chair, Kristen Carmean (filling in for Chair Arthur Sevalho-Goncalves, a physician currently treating Covid patients) chaired the Annual General Meeting.

Kristen began with DABR's "Story of Persistence" in reestablishing the CC, first led by Jacob Lassar, now V-Chair for Membership, in 2017.  Another involved member from that time, Joseph Weiss, has also joined the team as Treasurer. Leading a new effort in January 2020, Kristen and Arthur brought in Patricia Paine as Secretary and Marc Weiss as Member-at-Large for a full and robust Ex Comm. 

DABR's Nominations and Elections Committee (NEC) is pleased to announce its Elections and Annual General Meeting  May 26, 7pm Brasilia time, that will reestablish DABR as a  fully operating Country Committee -  Join us via WebEx! The Committee is currently outreaching for nominees to join the Executive Committee. For details, see Events here, or find the full announcement at: DABR's Facebook
