Scientific Advisory Board
SynBERC's Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) provide important advice for the thrusts and the testbeds. These advisors review progress reports, proposals for future work, and the overall scientific goals of the project. The SAB gives input to the SynBERC Leadership Team on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the SynBERC scientific program. The SAB has recently been expanded to include experts who can help us address emerging needs in the areas of industry and the Practices thrust.
