They are the brains behind every scientist we choose and every project we fund.
A mix of trusted experts in their field, the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) uses a rigorous set of criteria to identify and support emerging talent through our Innovation Awards and Praespero Summits.
Award winners include anyone in any discipline conducting innovative medical research: immunologists, neurologists, micro- and molecular biologists, biomedical engineers, medical doctors, principal investigators and more.
