Work Highlights

The Research Advisory Committee meets about 8 times a year via a monthly teleconference. We work on promoting and disseminating the research endeavors of our members via CAPO Digest , Webinars , SOSIDO highlights of recently published worked , research awards , etc. We also work closely with the Student Liaison member to meet the research needs of our members who are trainees. We typically organize a Knowledge Transfer activity at our annual meeting and assist in the planning of the conference and with the abstract review process.
