Scientific Advisory Board
The Scientific Advisory Board (SAB), composed of scientists working in academia, industry and government, meets each June to approve topics for presentation in our next round of conferences and to suggest ways to improve the focus, quality, and balance of the approved program topics.

The Program Advisory Committee (denoted with *), composed of representatives from the SAB and ad hoc members recruited from the scientific community, meets each January to review conference topics submitted by members of the scientific community; determine areas of science for which meeting proposals will be solicited; and assign members to work with potential organizers to develop conference topics.

Governance is provided by a Board of Directors (denoted with #) composed of scientists from academia, industry, government and foundations.
