CoLAB: Next panel meeting to be held on April 20

The next meeting of the evaluation panel Call the Award of the Title and Designation of Collaborative Laboratory (CoLAB) will take place on April 20. Due to the limited number of public presentations that can be made at each meeting, the panel will evaluate the first 10 applications submitted by March 23. The FCT will announce on its website when this number has been reached.

The remaining applications submitted by March 23 will be evaluated at the panel's next meeting, which is expected to take place during the first half of 2018. The FCT emphasizes that all applications submitted will be evaluated. The only limitation is related to the number of proposals that can be presented and discussed in a one-day public session, such as the one planned for April 20. All proposals that cannot be presented publicly on this date will be presented in a second session.

In January, FCT announced theresults of its evaluationof the first applications submitted to Call, approving the decision to award the CoLAB title to six of the seven applications submitted by November 15, 2017.
