Review of scientific merit

Each proposal is assessed by a peer review panel on the basis of scientific merit. Members of this peer review panel are specialists in their field and have been appointed by Diamond Light Source management. The review panel will either correspond electronically or in face to face meetings before giving their recommendations to Diamond Light Source management.
