Dear ESB Members,
This is a friendly reminder that voting for the 2026 ESB Council elections is now open. Your vote is an important contribution to the future of our Society, and we encourage all eligible members to take a few minutes to review the candidates and cast their vote before the deadline.
We have received an impressive 18 applications for the six ESB Council positions that will become vacant in July 2026, reflecting our members’ strong engagement and commitment to shaping the Society’s future.
Voting will take place online, and the voting system will be open between Monday, 22 June 2026 until Sunday, 12 July 2026 at 17:15 Vancouver time (PDT).
In order to vote, you have to be in good standing, and you can vote following this procedure:
- Go to the ESBiomech website: https://esbiomech.org/
- Login as a member clicking on “Member Login” link in the bottom left of the page
- Click “My ESB” at the top of the page (in red) and select ‘Voting’ to cast your vote, or ‘Council Elections 2026’ to find out more about the candidates
- Review the candidates’ applications and profiles (for each candidate there are links to their professional institutional or personal page, applications forms and CV)
- Please select at least ONE and up to SIX candidates from the 18 applicants. In order to give continuity to the ESB council we encourage the members to vote those standing for a second mandate.
- The ESB President will present the results at the General Assembly at WSB26 in Vancouver.
NOTE: The electronic vote is secret. Once you have voted, the system does not allow us to identify you. For security reasons, once you have voted, you will not be able to access the electronic voting procedure again. As long as you do not cast a vote while navigating the website, you can access the electronic voting system as many times as needed.
