Monell Science Advisory Board

The Monell Science Advisory Board (MSAB), comprised of high-level experts representing academia, industry, government, and patient/clinical perspectives, provides strategic guidance on the scientific direction of the Monell Center. Established in 2025, MSAB reviews the Center’s research programs, outputs, and outcomes; identifies scientific gaps, emerging research opportunities, and potential risks; and advises faculty on key strategic research themes.
