The External Advisory Committee (EAC) is comprised of leading, well-known leaders and senior research investigators in areas specific to the health disparities developed by the Center. Committee members represent expertise in health services research, health systems management, health policy and communications or broadening medicine and public health. Members also provide scientific and management review and advisement to the Principal Investigator/Center Director. Meetings are convened biannually to develop and modify the strategic plan, as well as review the progress and implementation of research investigators, strategies, and other programmatic results.
