The Scientific Committee coordinates the scientific activities of ICEC in terms of achieving the high level of expectations for ICEC. The Committee advises the leadership of ICEC in its goals of conducting implementation science, program building and research on a global scale. To minimize “layers” of bureaucracy and facilitate the ability to rapidly make decisions, the Scientific Committee members include Co-chairs of the Expert, Hub, Centers and Associates Committees, and other Panels as assigned by the Board of Directors. In effect, this coordination, harmonization and recommendation process is the only step between the Expert, Hub, Centers and Associates Committee and the final decision by the Board of Directors.
With input from their respective Committees the Scientific Committee rapidly aggregates information and provides advice and recommendations to the Board of Directors and ICEC Operations Working Group on the composition of those ICEC committees and Expert Panels involved in the conduct of scientific and educational activities in terms of ability to perform the science and inject creativity in the research and education programs; assesses the status of and effectiveness of ICEC communications in terms of the technical sophistication of conference calls, the effectiveness of mentoring by the Expert Panels or individual Experts, the progress by the Hubs and Associates, and the level of implementation science, translational science as well as the type of clinical trials. It, reviews and critiques clinical care guidelines, especially the clinical research protocols being conducted under the ICEC banner, either alone or in collaboration with other clinical cancer research groups.
