EPSRC have introduced a slight change to the peer review process that is intended to focus discussion at panel meetings. In the past panel members have had to 'pre-score' proposals, based on the reviewers' comments. However, this was a bit of a blunt tool, and there was often disagreement between panellists as to the good or bad elements of a proposals. With the new system panellists will have to
pre-score each element of the proposal, using the same headings as the reviewers, namely:
- quality
- impact
- applicants
- resources and management.
Quality, EPSRC assure us, will trump all. Their announcement of the changes is available
here.
