🌳Etymology
Origin
The word derives from French panneau, meaning 'small wooden board' or 'panel', which was later extended to denote 'a group of experts or specialists'. The English 'panelist' combines this French root with the agent noun suffix '-ist', creating a term for a person who serves as a member of such an expert panel.
