The Scientific Advisory Board advises the Centre on its scientific research strategy and its delivery. It reviews scientific progress, highlights issues and opportunities, and helps to ensure that the maximum scientific benefit is derived from Lero research. The Advisory Board played an important role in the tightening of Lero’s research focus on Evolving Critical Systems and on the increasing emphasis on innovation and commercialisation. It meets annually but is available to the Centre at all times. Members include :-
