Steering Committee

While all members of the coalition have a voice in informing the agenda, the coalition is governed by a steering committee whose members are elected every three years. Members of the steering committee reflect the diversity of coalition membership with slots allocated for members from both large and medium-sized institutions in terms of annual National Institutes of Health (NIH) pediatric research funding. The voting member of the steering committee is a research leader at a member institution. Following are the current steering committee members who were elected in spring 2022:

Dr. Carl Allen
Texas Children's Hospital

Dr. David Brousseau
Nemours Children’s Health
