The University wishes to note that a Tier 2 nomination resulting from an external recruitment has required a flex move to change the council of the chair slot to align with the nominee’s area of research. The University will be submitting the nomination by Fall 2024. As with all CRC opportunities, the University’s objectives of equity, diversity and inclusion were taken into considering when making this decision.
