PEOPLE
Importantly, the CZOs are a collection of infrastructure, data, models... and PEOPLE!
Each interdisciplinary CZO team is led by a Principal Investigator. Each CZO also has a multidisciplinary team engaged in research.
In addition, the CZO program as a whole is reviewed and advised by a National Steering Committee.
