As an organisation we are committed to principles of openness, integrity and transparency and seek to uphold ethical values in all our activities and processes. The newly established Â鶹ÒùÔº College of Reviewers (CoR) provides high quality peer reviews for all relevant Â鶹ÒùÔº activities and ensures a consistent approach across our awards and funding opportunities.

Members are drawn from a range of organisations and career experience, from Early Career Researchers to senior academics and users.
