One of the most important processes for achieving our Mission consists in ensuring a truly independent, excellent and professional evaluation for the applications. Ikerbasque carries out an intensive search for the best researchers and scientific professional around the world to be part of the evaluation panels. The evaluators can not be members of the local scientific community, since our aim is to ensure the independence of the evaluations.
170 independent external evaluators from 25 countries participate in the evaluation process of Ikerbasque calls, under the coordination of the following members of Ikerbasque Scientific Advisory Committee:
- Domingo Docampo, Professor of Telecommunications and ex-Chancellor of the University of Vigo.
- Francisco José García Vidal, Research Professor at the Autonomous University of Madrid. Spanish National Reseach Award in Physics (2021) and Jaime I Research Award (2020).
- Ginés Morata, Research Professor at the Spanish Council for Research CSIC; Principe de Asturias Award in Scientific Research 2007; Rey Jaime I Research Award 1996.
