The Research Committee was created under Special Order No. 42 s. 1990 due to the need of the Institute for an advisory group who will conduct as well as supervise all research trials and exploratory studies. Since then, the Committee has been continuously upgraded in order to improve the Institute’s research endeavors. The most recent re-organization was under Special Order No. 16 s. 1999 changing the members of the Research Committee.
