I am familiar with the group in the sense of knowing what they do but am not a member myself. I think we could contact them directly or I could try and find someone I know who is a member and see transpires.

How familiar are you guys with the Union of Concerned Scientists, and do you have any input into how Project PM and that organization could assist one another?

Great, let's proceed with her and also prepare to get in touch with the Union of Concerned Scientists to determine how we can work together.

I just extended an invitation to someone who would be an asset to this particular subproject.

She currently works at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. I believe her current research relates to bacteria and the adverse consequences associated with chemotherapy.

I would like to have at least one more exchange with her before making it official.

With that said, along with her indication of interest, she has made me aware that she is a member of the Union of Concerned Scientists. They have a whole section dedicated to scientific integrity: http://www.ucsusa.org/scientific_integrity/
