The Science and Technology Advisory Committee (STAC) advises the ITER Council on science and technology issues that arise during the course of ITER construction and operation.

In its last meeting in September 2023, the STAC reviewed the new plans for construction and operation proposed by the ITER Organization and Member's Domestic Agencies. It supported the change in blanket first wall armour material (from beryllium to tungsten) and recommended adopting the proposed outline operational plan as a basis for the further articulation of the Updated Baseline.

This month, after the further consolidation of the ITER Research Plan, including the input of experts, the STAC gathered to review progress and strategy. A full report will be made to the ITER Council, which will meet on site at ITER in June.

This week, the ITER Council Management Advisory Committee (MAC) also convenes at ITER Headquarters. Its role is to advise the ITER Council on strategic management issues.
