Scientific Review Committee (SRC)

COMMITTEE CHARGE:
The INSPIRE Scientific Review Committee (SRC) is responsible for:

  • Management of the project review process for research proposals, manuscripts and grants. These formally occur twice per year at the IMSH and IPSS INSPIRE meetings as part of the ALERT presentation process, but our website is also open to ongoing submissions.
  • Ongoing updates and revisions of the INSPIRE scientific review process (e.g ALERT presentation templates, submission processes, rating/feedback processes, etc).
  • Dissemination of INSPIRE research expectations and templates (e.g. INSPIRE poster templates, acknowledgments of INSPIRE in a poster/manuscript, INSPIRE bylines, etc).
  • Development of educational processes intended to enhance the research knowledge and skillsets of those affiliated with INSPIRE (e.g research design, project implementation, writing skills, etc).

As INSPIRE increases membership and sites, we receive more research proposals and collaborative interest.  To continue our objective to provide ongoing feedback and collaboration, we recruit interested and expert simulationists to address our proposals and help provide ongoing feedback throughout the life of the study.  If you are interested, please contact us at [email protected] .
