(3) the product donors and volunteer donor clinic organizers;
(4) the Collège des médecins du Québec;
(5) the scientific research sector;

(7) the public health sector.
There must be at least one but not more than 3 members per category. All 11 members are appointed by the Government after consultation with the persons or sectors in that category.
The board must also include a person who is a member of the Ordre des comptables professionnels agréés du Québec, appointed by the Government after consultation with that professional order.
The president and chief executive officer, who may be designated by the title “président-directeur général” or “président et chef de la direction” in French, is also a member of the board, appointed to that position by the other members of the board.
