The Nuclear Physics Grants Panel’s role is to:
- assess and make recommendations to the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) Executive for research awards in nuclear physics
- take account, as appropriate, of any strategic advice provided by STFC
- provide clear concise feedback to applicants
- advise the Science Board and Executive as required on all issues relating to research grants, including monitoring the level of funding allocated to grants per round
- liaise with other bodies as necessary
- carry out such other tasks associated with peer review as the Executive might require
- take account, as appropriate, of the recommendations of external reviewers and the conclusion of specialist peer review panels. These may be convened by the Executive
- advise on consolidated grants, contiguous groups of research requests, or research requests which are judged (on the basis of cost or propriety) to warrant such separate, in-depth assessment.
