Membership

Lealem has extended invitation to Raj Vadigepalli, and Raj has accepted

Lealem has emailed Andrew Drach and is awaiting his response.

The plan is still to recruit new members at the upcoming IMAG/MSM meetin.

IMAG/MSM Activities.

We are planning to have an informational poster at the IMAG/MSM meeting. Lealem will draft an abstract that will be distributed to the rest of the committee shortly.

Raj inquired if the PIs are expected to follow the Ten Simple Rules of Credible Practice – The investigators are not required to follow any specific guideline. They can present a credibility plan that can convince the research community and third party reviewers that their credibility plan is adequate to demonstrate model reliability for their context of use.

Ahmet suggested that the presenters could follow a standard presentation outline to facilitate discussions at the IMAG/MSM meeting.

Lealem will contact Grace to suggest a standard presentation format for the Model Credibility Plan session.

TSR Community Survey. Marc and Lealem are going to transfer the definitions and key discussion points for the various rules into a word document. This will make the process of translating the public survey results into a paper or report.

TSR Committee Perspective. Status is unchanged from previous meeting.

Other Business.

None.
