Research Policy Committee
The primary function of the Research Policy Committee (RPC) is to formulate and execute policies related to research at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine. The RPC also advises the administration on faculty issues pertaining to research. In this capacity, the committee initiates policy changes designed to enhance the research environment at the School. To assist in the accomplishment of these objectives, the RPC actively solicits input from the faculty, administrators, and staff.
If you wish to place a research-related issue on the RPC agenda, please contact Brandon Cox, Ph.D., Chair of RPC, at bcox@siumed.edu.

National recognition. Regional impact.
“This recognition confirms what we at SIU have always known: that world-class research is happening right here in central and southern Illinois.” – Dr. Jerry Kruse
