2009 Committee Chairs

EYH Committee Chairs are responsible for the overall organization of the EYH conference. They are mostly graduate student volunteers. Each position can have a chair and several committee members who are learning about how EYH is organized. If you are interested in being an EYH Committee Chair/Member or helping out with the conference organization for 2010 please contact us at eyh@ccmr.cornell.edu.
