International Advisory Board

International Scientific Advisory Board (ISAB)

ISAB is an external advisory body of internationally renowned experts invited to assess the scientific quality and research prospects of individual research teams of the BMC SAS and provide strategic recommendations for the future development of the teams as well as the entire institution. Based on the current research scope of the BMC SAS, the assessment is going to proceed in four broader research areas, namely: (1) virology-microbiology-immunology, (2) cancer research-nanobiology, (3) endocrinology-metabolism-genetics-physiology, and (4) neurosciences. Assessment of research teams in each of these research areas will be governed by two ISAB members, and the board of evaluators will be coordinated by the ISAB chair. The ISAB members were nominated by the internal Scientific board and the Management board of the BMC SAS, based on their excellent scientific expertise and high reputation.
