RCMI Internal Advisory Committee (IAC) Members
The RCMI Program Internal Advisory Committee (IAC) is composed of biomedical/behavioral faculty members and administrators from the College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Institute of Public Health (CoPPS, IPH), College of Science and Technology (CST), and the Department of Biology and Chemistry. The members comprise the Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMI) Program participants and departmental division chairpersons from the CoPPS, IPH, and CST. The IAC meets quarterly with the RCMI principal investigator, associate program director, core leaders, pilot project investigators, and research participants to review the goals and objectives. Each core leader, pilot project investigator, and research participant must submit a progress report and/or give an oral presentation of their accomplishments at the annual meeting.
