The Scientific Review Board (SRB) comprises distinguished scientists who participate in the review of Institute investigators for reappointment. They work with the Medical Advisory Board in this capacity. Their opinions are advisory to the president.
The SRB is constituted to have a breadth of expertise that encompasses that of the HHMI investigators. Typically 25-35 members are sufficient to span the relevant biomedical subfields. The term of appointment of each member is four years. Appointments are made by the vice president who has responsibility for organization of the investigator reviews, subject to approval by the president.
Each SRB member participates in one, or occasionally two, investigator review meetings per year. They are assigned investigator reviews that are aligned with their own scientific expertise. SRB members are also expected to attend one of the Institute's scientific meetings each year
