Made up of 12 of the most prestigious physicians and scientists in the United States, the Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) oversees PKD Foundation research and medical programs aimed at discovering and delivering treatments for PKD. The SAC meets several times throughout the year to discuss relevant medical issues, provide guidance to PKD Foundation staff and review and approve research applications for grants and fellowships in the field of PKD science. All PKD Foundation materials and publications are approved by SAC members, who possess the highest level of experience and knowledge in PKD clinical and scientific work.
