At the moment, ICO applies for re-accreditation by the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) for the period 2012-2017. For ICO staff members re-accreditation by the KNAW means they have to renew their membership.

Within a few weeks, the ICO contact persons of partner universities will contact the staff members of their university to hand in a list of six publications published (or in press) over the period 2007-2011. Also staff members who are not yet a member of ICO but who meet the publication criteria are kindly invited to apply for ICO staff membership. Information on ICO staff membership requirements can be found on the ICO website. For more information, please contact the ICO contact person of your university (see ICO Management Team).

ICO Postdoc Members and ICO PhD Members will automatically stay a member of ICO after January 1, 2012. They don't have to take any action, whatsoever.
