GCRC Advisory Committee

The GCRC Advisory committee (GAC) supervises and reviews all operations of the GCRC, sets general policies, delineates common needs of the GCRC investigators, and evaluates projects for GCRC use.  Studies on the GCRC must have GAC approval prior to initiation. The GAC should prospectively prioritize projects for GCRC use to assist the program director in allocating resources.
