Hi Dan,
You can sign me up as a reader for German. I could also try Chinese, if there are no others. What is the timeline for this?

Hi all,
As I think I announced just under a month ago, we had an excellent response to the first GO::DH essay prize. There were 54 submissions in seven languages and covering a very wide range of topics.
I have just finished assigning readers from our adjudication panel to the papers. Between them, the 12 member panel have experience with 6 of the seven languages and all topics represented in the pool. We could, however, due with some reinforcements in a couple of areas:
We could use one or two more readers of the following languages: Chinese, German, and Polish We could use additional expertise in the following subject area: Health Informatics and/or Development Informatics.
I would greatly appreciate nominations of potential readers with experience in one or more of these languages and/or this subject area (self-nominations are also welcome). You (or your nominee) do not need experience in more than one of these languages or subject areas. These are just four places where having an additional reader or two would be very helpful to the committee.
Members of the adjudication committee can expect to have primary or secondary responsibility for scoring 6-8 abstracts (3~4 as primary reader, 3~4 as secondary reader). All members of the panel will be expected to read all abstracts on the shortlist. The scoring needs to be done by the second week in September.
If you or somebody you know has these skills and would like to join the committee, please email me at daniel.odonnell@uleth.ca. The usual conflict of interest rules will apply: readers will not be assigned submissions from colleagues, former or current students, co-authors, research partners, etc.
