March 13 - 15, 2013
The DCP3 Advisory Committee to the Editors (ACE) convened its first meeting at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, DC. In addition to introducing the ACE members to the DCP3 endeavor and to one another, the first ACE meeting was an opportunity to hear about the processes and participants involved in DCP3. Specifically, ACE members learned about the systematic economic analysis being carried out across the topics, commented on the scope and status of select volumes, got a preview of anticipated main messages, and discussed publication and dissemination plans.
