RCMAR National Coordinating Center’s Newly Formed Scientist Advisory Board – Resource Centers for Minority Aging Research

On behalf of the RCMAR National Coordinating Center, we are pleased to announce the members of the newly formed RCMAR Scientist Advisory Board! Scientists representing our eighteen sites across the country will come together to address issues of racial justice and promote the careers of RCMAR scientists. The purpose of the Advisory Board is as follows:

To have a representative community of RCMAR Scientists to provide input and feedback to the RCMAR Coordinating Center on overall RCMAR programs, services and supports
To have a formal mechanism whereby members can interact with the RCMAR CC on how to best meet the professional and career development needs of RCMAR Scientists
To have a mechanism for RCMAR Scientists to discuss and address sensitive issues affecting scientists’ personal and professional lives (i.e. issues of systemic racism, gender discrimination, power dynamics in academia, etc)

To view the RCMAR Scientist Advisory Board members, navigate to our Connect with Scientists page and follow the prompt.
