Scientific Committee

Scientific Committee

The Scientific Committee is a group of between 5-15 members nominated by the Board Members of ACQUEAU. The Scientific Committee is dedicated to provide expertise to help ACQUEAU from a technical point of view. In particular, the Scientific Committee will contribute to “Blue Book” updates when necessary. It will help the Executive Committee to prepare calls for proposals. It will review the proposals in the assessment phase, and provide advice and comments to the Executive Committee. It will act as a support to the Executive Office for the follow-up of ongoing projects.

Like the Directors, the members of the Scientific Committee are due to keep a full confidentiality with respect to the topics addressed either in writing or during meetings. They are requested to sign a Commitment Charter.
