NRP 77 has completed its first phase of the selection process and invited 90 project teams to submit full proposals.
An evaluation panel consisting of 32 international experts examined the 324 pre-proposals, assessing their scientific quality and relevance for the research programme. Based on two written evaluations for each pre-proposal and on the discussions at the selection meeting, the panel selected 90 projects to proceed to the second evaluation phase.
The 90 shortlisted projects require a total of over 50 million Swiss francs, but only 27 million Swiss francs are earmarked for project funding. Final decisions are expected in December 2019, thus research can start in January 2020.
