The scientific advisory board (SAB) represents the disciplinary, geographic, and gender diversity of the QCA community in North and South America and ensures that a well-balanced, high-quality technical program is organized and presented at the conference. Members of the SAB promote the conference to their networks and propose potential panels, sessions, speakers, and presiders to the organizing committee. The SAB develops and administers a post-conference survey of participants and compiles the results into a short report for the organizing committee. The chair of the SAB is responsible for organizing SAB meetings and votes and serves as the point of contact between the executive and organizing committees. The organizing committee solicits feedback from the SAB on substantial changes to the conference program.
