JKMRC is supported by an Advisory Board which meets formally at least three times a year.  The Board is an important part of JKMRC's governance structure and assists us in the following ways:

• Providing strategic advice on the Centre's research program
• Helping to identify research and funding opportunities
• Providing feedback on the quality and utility of the Centre's research activities.

Individual Board members also provide advice and assistance in relation to particular projects in which they have an interest.  The Advisory Board is comprised of both external members from industry as well as several UQ representatives.  The current membership is as follows:
