Scientific Advisory Committees
The Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) comprises scientists with expertise in various disciplines within infectious diseases and microbiology including drug discovery and development, medicinal chemistry, antimicrobial resistance, paediatrics and neonatology, and public health. The SAC has a consultative function: its members advise GARDP’s Board of Directors in order to carry out GARDP’s scientific objectives, assess GARDP’s scientific strategy and projects, and provide guidance and medical and scientific expertise to GARDP’s programmes.
The SAC operates independently of the Board of Directors and GARDP’s Management Team. The Board of Directors approves the selection of members.
