R'Equip applications are evaluated either by the Research Council (Div. I) or the R'Equip Panel, which includes members of the Research Council (Div. II), based on external reviews by experts in the field. Alternatively, applications may be evaluated through a Reader System (Div. III): a “virtual panel”, with several external experts comparing and evaluating a predefined number of applications. The results of this evaluation are integrated into an overall evaluation. The Steering Committee and the respective Division of the Research Council have an advisory role in this process.
The list contains the names of the members of the evaluation body Panel R'EQUIP. For the SNSF, interaction between applicants and members of evaluation bodies over applications is not compatible with academic best practices.
