Researchers > Scientific Committee

The Telethon Scientific Committee is composed of scientists of international standing, serving a  four-year term. To minimize potential conflicts of interest, Italian members working in Italy are kept to a minimum.
Members of the Scientific Committee are asked to review research grants, fellowships and career applications deriving from competitive calls. Furthermore, they are involved in the revision of promotion applications for Telethon Scientists, grant renewals submitted by Telethon's Institutes TIGEM (Telethon Institute of Genetics and Medicine) and HSR-TIGET (San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy) and in their periodic assessments through site visits.
