CITA Inc. Members
The Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA) was intended to serve as a national institute that is hosted by – rather than a part of – an individual university. To help maintain CITA’s national character distinct from its host university, CITA has been incorporated under the name Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics – Institut canadien d’astrophysique théorique.
An important part of the structure of CITA Inc. are its members. In particular, the members elect four of the seven members of the CITA Council; the four elected Council members must be members of CITA Inc and any changes in the by-laws of CITA Inc must be approved by the members. In addition, the membership list is the basis for mailing our newsletter and for announcements of CITA programs, postdoctoral fellowships, etc. It is also our hope that the CITA membership will be broadly representative of the community of theoretical astrophysicists in Canada, in much the same way that CASCA/CAP represents the community of astronomers/physicists.
Become a CITA Inc. member or renew your membership by filling out the CITA Inc Membership Application/Renewal Form. CITA Inc. members can also opt to become CITA National Fellow Hosts.
