Definition and Role of the External Advisory Board (EAB)
An external advisory board, whose membership will be subject to approval by NSF’s cognizant program official, will meet at least once a year and provide written and verbal advice to iDigBio on its activities, including progress and integration of digitization projects, research, education and outreach activities among all funded institutions, and provide advice on strategic directions, management policies and sustainability. It is anticipated that board members will serve for 2-3 years and have expertise in scientific research and/or sustainability of biological infrastructure.
- Board members with scientific backgrounds will represent areas of research that use natural history collection specimen-based data, such as systematics, ecology, conservation, ecosystem science, paleontology, evolution, and agriculture.
- Board members knowledgeable about sustaining biological infrastructure will have experience in areas such as strategic planning, communicating with stakeholders, and development of business models that can lead to the long-term sustainability of iDigBio and the national digitization effort.
