Experts in the Health industry

The Health Directorate at the European Commission is currently seeking top industrial/scientific experts to support the selection of the best FP7 proposal

If you are a scientist working in Health industry (large or small company), you can enrol yourself as an expert evaluator for Research Activities of FP7

FP7 proposals are selected through a peer review system, where top experts in the fields of the proposals being evaluated are involved in a fair and transparent assessment of the submitted proposals that follows the EC rules for evaluation, selection and award procedures.

Being an expert evaluator for Research Activities of FP7 is a useful experience to understand the EC evaluation system and it is generally considered very valuable. Compensation is foreseen both for time and expenses.

In the selection of experts for evaluation, the Commission services have to follow strict rules to avoid conflicts of interest. In addition the panel of experts invited to evaluate the proposals should represent a fair cross-section of the research communities, respect gender balance and assure pertinent and complementary competences (at the moment, industrial expertise needs to be reinforced).  In addition, the number and profile of invited experts will depend on the number and the content of the received proposals. Therefore there is no certitude to be invited.
