The scientific advisory board is made up of key resource persons who support projects led by the platform and are occasionally called upon to advise the team carrying out a design project during an action research residency.

In that event, they are contacted by the audit committee.

The audit committee is appointed annually by the board of directors to administer the residencies and discuss their direction. The auditors may be scientific advisory board members, but may only serve one of the two terms at a given time.
