Wow, NERC have eliminated peer review from the fellowship decision process, after the call deadline. So applicants wrote for an audience that doesn't exist.
@simon yikes. What process are they using?
@ProfBatGirl straight to multiple members of the panel.
@ProfBatGirl Sorry, still getting to grips with this platform. It's going straight to the review panel. I think possibly the review panel is being beefed up. But still, it seems really odd to abandon the decision process that was described to applicants.
