External Advisory Committee

The Mississippi INBRE External Advisory Committee (EAC) evaluates research priorities and initiatives for INBRE, advises on administrative matters, and evaluates the network for effectiveness and sustainability. EAC members monitor and encourage individual faculty and assist in identifying mentors. They also review and recommend potential investigators in the network before programmatic review by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS).
