Advisory Board

As of February 2021, CRS4 has been endowed with an Advisory Board with a very high technical and scientific profile that will give assistance, support and advice to management.
The board is currently composed of ten personalities from various fields and of international repute, who will assess the scope of ongoing activities and

will suggest new development trajectories, fostering contacts and future collaborations. By means of a healthy technical and scientific discussion and by giving their free contribution to the Center, they will help CRS4 continue on its path toward increasingly ambitious goals.
