ABOUT THE BIO Advisory Committee
![](https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/web/20130220195912im_/http://nsf.gov/images/bluefade.jpg)
The Biological Sciences Advisory Committee (BIO AC) advises the Directorate (BIO) on such issues as:
- How BIO's mission, programs, and goals can best serve the scientific community;
- Institutional administration and policy;
- How BIO can promote quality graduate and undergraduate education in the biological sciences;
- Priority investment areas in biological research; and
- Government Performance and Results Act, including Committees of Visitors.
The BIO AC meets twice a year. Members represent a cross section of biology with
representatives from many different subdisciplines within the field; a cross
section of institutions including industry; broad geographic representation; and
balanced representation of women and under-represented minorities.
Inquiries/recommendations regarding the BIO Advisory Committee may be directed to Dr. Charles Liarakos.
UPCOMING BIO AC MEETING
- The Spring Meeting of the Advisory Committee for the Directorate for Biological Sciences is tentatively scheduled for the month of April, 2013. Further information to come.
