Request Received: 3 July 2020
I am writing to make a Freedom of Information Request for statistics to assess the BBSRC peer review process.
I would be grateful if you could provide the following information for the BBSRC Research Committee B and Committee C.
1. The total number of Responsive Mode grant applications assessed during the three sittings of the committees in 2019. Please provide separate numbers for the two committees.
2. The number of external peer reviews received by the committees for the grant applications in 2019. I am interested in finding the distribution of the number of reviews received for each grant application. For example, how many applications received 1 review, how many applications received 2 reviews, 3 reviews etc.
3. The number of Responsive Mode grant applications awarded by the committees in 2019 and the distribution of the number of reviews received, as in #2 above.
