of nomination stating the name,

that individuals from a broad
representation of geographic areas,
gender, and ethnic and minority groups,
as well as individuals with disabilities,
are considered for membership.
Appointments shall be made without
discrimination on the basis of age,
ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or
cultural, religious, or socioeconomic
status.
Individuals who are selected to be
considered for appointment will be
required to provide detailed information
regarding their financial holdings,
consultancies, and research grants or
contracts. Disclosure of this information
is required for HRSA ethics officials to
determine whether there is a conflict
between the SGE’s public duties as a
member of ACBSCT and their private
interests, including an appearance of a
loss of impartiality as defined by federal
laws and regulations, and to identify
any required remedial action needed to
address the potential conflict.
