The Responsible Offshore Science Alliance (ROSA)’s Research Advisors provide independent, scientific input to the advisory council and its committees as needed. Individuals with relevant technical and subject matter expertise apply to serve as research advisors. Advisors are added periodically to ensure that the group encompasses expertise in the wide range of research topics that ROSA is exploring.
Anyone interested in exploring becoming a research advisor should contact ROSA Research Director Mike Pol at mike@rosascience.org.
Visit the Research Advisor Projects page to learn about research advisors’ involvement in ROSA projects.
