The Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) is made up of physicians, health care professionals, researchers and thought leaders in the field of brain injury from across Canada. The SAC reviews all information published on BRITE and provides advice and recommendations to make sure everything is objective, evidence-based and meets a high standard of scientific excellence.
Brain Injury Canada is always seeking new members to join the BRITE SAC. If you would like to participate to support individuals, their families and caregivers and to work with peers within the industry, please contact us.
We would like to thank the members of the SAC for continuing to build a network of care for Canadian youth living with brain injury in their community.
