Scientific Committee

The Scientific Committee is the administrative body entrusted with developing the core programme of UEG Week.

The committee meets in person four times a year to develop the programme of UEG Week and is in constant communication with the UEG Secretariat to smooth out the details. This on-going and dynamic relationship between our volunteer Scientific Committee members and the Secretariat is key to the high quality programme people have come to expect at UEG Week.
