Must the PI (center director) of the application be the most experienced member (or the one with the longest track record) of the research team?
No. One of the review criteria on which the application will be evaluated is the strength of the center director (PI), in terms of scientific or academic achievement (track record), management ability and leadership qualities. Convincing evidence should be provided that the PI has outstanding abilities to lead, coordinate, and manage all of the activities of the CEER.
