How are the Scientific Excellence Advisors selected?
The panel is composed of about 30 people, divided roughly equally among the four competency areas. The people are selected by the NTC Operating Board. Membership on the panel is determined by academic strength. No one may serve on the panel who is or has been involved in NTC projects or funding. The panel members’ names will not be made public and their work will be conducted under a confidentiality agreement. Therefore your new proposal will NOT be made public unless it is funded.
