RECRUITMENT AND SCREENING PANEL
| The Recruitment and Screening Panel, appointed by staff, will consist
of approximately 25 individuals from key scientific and engineering
disciplines. These men and women will be well known and respected
and, in turn, be acquainted with a great many people in their own
field or related areas of research. The panel will have two
main roles. The first will be to help identify scientists, engineers
or physicians who are highly qualified in the area of expertise sought
by a judge who has requested assistance from the project. Panel
members also may contact potential experts to inquire about their
general interest in serving as court-appointed experts.
Because names of potential experts may come from sources other
than panel members – for example, from scientific societies – the
panel’s other important role will be to vet the recommended scientists,
engineers or physicians for scientific merit, reputation, and the
ability to communicate highly technical information to non-scientific
audiences. |
