I have a practical question for candidates who already have the opportunity to leave their comments on current grant proposals if they wish. Some have already done so, and I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the committee.
Very soon, someone will have to make difficult choices every week. Approving or rejecting a grant is always a huge responsibility, first and foremost to the community and, of course, to the applicant. In practice, it is literally a choice between common sense and emotions. And emotions, of course, get in the way. So please give your comments on these topics. What would you do?
