SMC Research Agendas are forward-looking documents that lay out the SMC’s key research priorities over the coming five years. Developed by an independent expert advisory panel, each Research Plan serves as a roadmap and a guide to help the SMC Steering Committee decide which projects to prioritize and fund each fiscal year.
