DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS


Cooperative Studies Scientific Evaluation Committee; Notice of 
Meeting

    The Department of Veterans Affairs gives notice under the Federal 
Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 2, that the Cooperative Studies 
Scientific Evaluation Committee will hold a meeting on March 10, 2022 
by Zoom. The meeting will begin at 8:30 a.m. and end at 3:00 p.m. EST.
    The Committee provides expert advice on VA cooperative studies, 
multi-site clinical research activities and policies related to 
conducting and managing these efforts. The session will be open to the 
public for approximately 30 minutes at the start of the meeting for the 
discussion of administrative matters and the general status of the 
program. The remaining portion of the meeting will be closed to the 
public for the Committee's review, discussion and evaluation of 
research and development applications.
    During the closed portion of the meeting, discussions and 
recommendations will deal with qualifications of personnel conducting 
the studies, staff and consultant critiques of research proposals and 
similar documents and the medical records of patients who are study 
subjects, the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly 
unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. In addition, the premature 
disclosure of potential research activities prior to them being 
approved could frustrate the implementation of approved research 
activities. As provided by section 10(d) of Public Law 92-463, as 
amended, closing portions of this meeting is in accordance with 5 
U.S.C. 552b(c)(6) and (c)(9)(B).
    The Committee will not accept oral comments from the public for the 
open portion of the meeting. Members of the public who wish to attend 
the open teleconference should call 872-701-0185, conference ID 905 990 
401#. Those who plan to attend or wish additional information should 
contact David Burnaska, Program Manager, Cooperative Studies Program 
(14RD), Department of Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue NW, 
Washington, DC 20420, at 202-443-5693 or <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#482c293e212c662a3d3a26293b2329083e29662f273e"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8aeeebfce3eea4e8fff8e4ebf9e1ebcafceba4ede5fc">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>. Those 
wishing to submit written comments may send them to Mr. Burnaska at the 
same address and email.

    Dated: February 3, 2022.
LaTonya L. Small,
Federal Advisory Committee Management Officer.
