Research Oversight Committee


 
The ISHLT Board of Directors’ work regarding its research mission is delegated in large part to the Research Oversight Committee. The purpose of the Research Oversight Committee (ROC) is to oversee, coordinate, and harmonize the activities of the committees under its purview to ensure that their programs and services further the Society’s research mission and strategy. The Committees under the ROC’s purview are the Grants and Awards Sub-Committee, the Thoracic Transplant Registry Steering Sub-Committee, and the IMACS Registry Steering Sub-Committee.
