RPC

Research Planning Committee

The RPC was formed in June 2023. It replaced the previous Research Working Group as the main committee tasked with assessing and prioritizing ongoing research themes.

Scope and Goal

The RPC’s main functions are:

  1. Strategic planning – setting research priorities for the center, focusing and shaping the research vision and agenda;
  2. Providing guidance and oversight for the Flagship Projects;
  3. Soliciting and evaluating proposals for seed funding;
  4. Providing guidance for research funding allocations.
