The Scientific Advisory Committee
The Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) is a board that the JGI Director convenes to provide a scientific and technical overview of the JGI/PGF. Responsibilities of this board include providing technical input on large-scale production sequencing, new sequencing technologies, and related informatics; overview of the scientific programs at the JGI/PGF; and overview of the Community Sequencing Program (CSP). A crucial job of the committee is to take the input from the CSP Proposal Study Panel on prioritization of CSP projects and, with BER’s concurrence, set the final sequence allocation for this program.
