SIMPL Leadership

Research Standing Committee

Translational research is core to the SIMPL mission. The SIMPL database the largest of it’s kind and is a key resource for that effort. The Research Standing Committee (RSC) is responsible for reviewing, approving, and holding accountable those using multi-site SIMPL data resources for research purposes. This oversight ensures that our data is used to ethically advance the mission of the collaborative and, more generally, benefit society.
