All scientific matters are handled by the Scientific Committee (SC) appointed by the Board of Directors.
Created on July 8th 2015, the SC is composed of internationally recognized researchers, who have been conducting Breast Cancer research protocols for many years and who wish to increase the accessibility of patients to these protocols.
Each of the Group’s member sites is represented and sits on the scientific committee in addition to a representative for radiation oncology and a breast cancer specialist providing complementary expertise to the clinician members of the scientific committee.
The SC establishes the agenda, working methods, collaboration rules and performance indicators, and manages clinical trial selection to be carried out by the consortium. It also plays an advisory role in setting up the Programme Accès-recherche Dr. André-Robidoux.
