The Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) acts as an advisory body providing strategic review and counsel to the Executive Committee on the research activities of the Center. The IAB meets semi-annually to review the ATP-Bio’s research programs and mechanisms for technology transfer, as well as assignments for action, disposition, and recommendations of IAB sub-committees.

Formed during Y2, the IAB meets quarterly, two of which happen at the fall Site Visit and spring Annual Meeting.

IAB Chair: Dr. Rob Goldstein (Executive Director, Fluxtrol, Inc.)

IAB Vice-Chair:  Dr. Kourosh Saeb-Parsy (Founder & CEO of Avatrial Ltd)

Its members include representatives of companies or organizations supporting the ATP-Bio at various membership levels. During IAB meetings, IAB members provide guidance and perspectives on the Center’s research strategy, future technology priorities, and the funding of ATP-Bio research projects. In Y3, the IAB launched ATP-Bio RFP002 SIRP: Stakeholder-Inspired Research Program to identify and sponsor areas of research of particular interest to members.
