About VITALISE 

From March 2022 to May 2023, the process of awarding Transnational Access to research infrastructures will be managed through three consecutive Open Calls.  

For each of these calls, external researchers will be invited to submit their research proposals for approval. 

The research topics should be related to the Joint Research activities of the project (rehabilitation, transitional care, and everyday living environments).  

However, candidates can also present their own research in agreement with the corresponding Research Infrastructure Leader. 

An Evaluators Board will then carry out the final selection of the proposals. That’s when you come in, as you will join the board as an external evaluator!

As an external evaluator you will: 

• Assess the proposals based on the information that candidates provide in their application.
