Scientific Advisory Board
The External Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) consists of four international scientists from the fields of ecology and evolution. The members of the SAB are appointed for a period of four years.
The SAB advises the Directorate on management aspects and provides feedback on quality control, collaboration support and decision-making processes. The SAB monitors the performance of the Directorate in ensuring high quality training of the future generation of scientists.
Members of the SAB are invited to visit the Doctoral School annually at the retreat or the Symposium to meet with PhD-candidates, PIs and associate PIs. At the end of these meetings, a draft summary report should be submitted to the VDSEE Steering Committee.
The SAB members for the first four years (2021-2025) are:
