The Selection Committee (SC) is composed by internationally reputed evaluators : approximately half of them will be chosen from Italian institutions, whilst the other will be from foreign institutions. In appointing evaluators gender balance will be properly taken into account.
The SC operates under the supervision of a Chair and 6 Vice-chairs.
The members of the SC are chosen based on their professional standing and reputation, their wide knowledge in research fields related to the areas of activity of INFN, their high level of professional experience in international research projects in physics related field, and their experience in evaluation processes.
All SC members will perform evaluations on a personal basis, not as representatives of their employer, their country or any other entity. They will be required to be independent, impartial and objective, to behave throughout in a professional manner, and to maintain strict confidentiality with respect to the whole evaluation process.
Upon accepting a research proposal for review experts are required to declare that there is no conflict of interests. Experts who are in some way connected to the applicants (including, but not limited to family ties, professional ties, such as the expert supervised the applicant, was in the same research group, participated in preparation of the project of any applicant, or provided a recommendation letter for any of the applicants) are considered in direct conflict of interest. Such experts will be excluded from reviewing said proposal.
The members of the SC shall remain confidential throughout the whole evaluation process. The identity of the reviewers for any given proposal will only be known to the Selection Committee and the FELLINI Coordination Board. Experts’ names will be protected and not be made public to the applicant neither during nor after the reviewing process.
