ISCE Board of Trustees
The ISCE Board of Trustees brings together senior leaders from across the
computerized ECG industry to support collaboration, innovation and the
continued advancement of computerized electrocardiology.
Join the Board of Trustees
The International Society for Computerized Electrocardiology (ISCE) was
established in 1984 in the state of California as a non-profit organization
devoted to the advancement of electrocardiology through the application of
computer methods. An outgrowth of the Engineering Foundation, which sponsored
the early annual meetings since 1975, the Society aims to:
-
Promote research and dissemination of research results through publication
of conference proceedings.
-
Stimulate collaborative links among researchers, industrial developers and
medical practitioners to enable translational research and transfer of technologies.
-
Promote communication and education relevant to the subject.
-
Encourage and support young investigators in the field.
-
Open venues for validating computer programs and development of databases
for such validation.
-
Organize annual conferences on the computerized interpretation of the electrocardiogram.
Role of the Board of Trustees
The ISCE Board of Trustees (BOT) consists of senior executive leadership from
the computerized ECG industry, meeting at least one day per year in an open
dialogue forum.
The primary objectives of the ISCE BOT are to:
-
Develop sufficient awareness across the industry of the incentives and
challenges necessary to sustain innovation in computerized ECG devices
that improve clinical care and respond to unmet or newly defined market
needs and opportunities.
-
Identify areas of particular interest that could be communicated to the
ISCE Board of Directors as potential Research & Development topics for
future ISCE Scientific Sessions programs.
Trustee Program Objectives
The logistical objectives of the ISCE Board of Trustees are to:
-
Provide a stable fiscal solution to sustain the ISCE Scientific Sessions
and organization through a multi-year pledge period for Trustees.
-
Define the structure and content of the annual Trustees meeting.
Advisory Role
The BOT serves as advisors to the ISCE Board of Directors for the purpose
of promoting goodwill between the Society, industry and industry regulators.
Membership in the BOT is constituted from the leadership of sponsoring
industry members who agree to a program of planned financial support for
the mission of the organization.
Members of the BOT need not be regular voting members of ISCE. A member of
ISCE may serve on the BOT, and a member of ISCE who is an elected or
executive member of the Board of Directors may also serve as a member of
the BOT.
Annual Trustee Meeting
It is anticipated that at least one meeting of the Board of Trustees,
together with the Executive Directors and other invited individuals, will be
held annually, as coordinated by the ISCE Treasurer in conjunction with the
Executive Directors. This meeting may be held separately or together with the
annual conference, at the convenience of the Trustees and Directors.
Trustee Commitment
A financial commitment underlying membership in the BOT is established and
supervised by the Treasurer, with the approval of the ISCE Board of Directors.
In Return for Trustee Support, ISCE Will:
-
Promote the advancement of electrocardiography through the transfer of
technology and provide a venue for validating computer programs and
developing databases for such validation.
-
Promote presentations from industry engineers and scientists at ISCE.
-
Provide special tutorial sessions for industry attendees addressing
engineering and clinical aspects of new devices and related technologies,
including areas such as signal processing.
-
Arrange face-to-face meetings for Trustees and the FDA on a yearly basis
to address regulatory issues.
