DMBN: Do you have any advice to offer someone interested in getting involved with SIIM?
Krupinski: My best advice is to attend a meeting. You don’t have to be a member of the society to attend the meeting. But don’t just go to the sessions, take your notes and go back to your hotel room. Stand up, interact and ask questions. Generally, just be an active participant. There’s a wide variety of formats at the meeting – not just lectures and going to scientific sessions. You’ll have a variety of options that will allow you to interact with people who are in the field and have extensive experience. If you can’t attend the meeting, visit the website. We offer podcasts explaining what imaging informatics is about, news updates, blogs, you’ll find a lot of information.
Beyond that, I would recommend if you have an area of expertise to share, be a presenter. Once you become a presenter, you gain the attention of the organizing committees and governing committees of the society. From that, you may be invited to become part of an educational course. So it’s attend, interact and volunteer.
