The external science council (ESCO) discusses all scientific matters with the steering committee. One important task is to bring research results quickly and safely into clinical application. Therefore, the council evaluates our research projects.

Moreover, the council evaluates our scientific work on a regular basis. Well-known personalities who have a high profile in science and/or industry and are from outside the BCRT are eligible as members of the external science council. The coucnil consists of at least three members. The external science council will inform BCRT's partners in writing about its meetings.
