The project committee is responsible for the internal scientific coordination of the NGFN. As an internal body its function is comparable to that of a management board. Among the essential tasks of the project committee are the coordination of research, the internal review of the scientific progress, and the coordination of the external presentation of the National Genome Research Network.

The spokespersons for the project committee are Professor Dr. Hugo Katus, Universitätsklinikum Heidelberg, and Professor Dr. Wolfgang Wurst, Helmholtz-Zentrum, München.

The members of the Project Committee are:

•    Prof. Dr. Jürgen Brosius, Universität Münster
•    Prof. Dr. Martin Hrabé de Angelis, Helmholtz-Zentrum, München
•    Prof. Dr. Hugo Katus, Universitätsklinikum Heidelberg
