The TSC Alliance International Scientific Advisory Board (ISAB) is comprised of both U.S. and international leaders in all areas of science relating to TSC research.

The mission of the ISAB is to help guide the TSC Alliance’s future research strategies by:

  • Providing direction for immediate and long-term TSC research initiatives,
  • Identifying and prioritizing translational TSC research opportunities,
  • Enhancing awareness of TSC and the TSC Alliance in the research community, and
  • Aligning with the TSC Alliance Professional Advisory Board to position the TSC Alliance as the leader in privately-funded TSC research.
