Studies In Planning
When studies are in the planning phase, VA researchers and CSP experts hold planning meetings during which they jointly design the study and develop a full study protocol. Next, a scientific committee, called the Cooperative Studies Scientific Evaluation Committee, reviews and critiques the proposal, and funding is provided for only the most relevant and highest quality research.
