- 5 reviewers per proposal
- Median score (not average) was taken into account
- Outliers can be omitted

- This was not the case here, I do not know who the other
reviewers were, nor what the end scores were.

linked with call (in this case: 5 on innovative characteristics of the research and 5 on valorisation)

was asked to expand on my motivation.
