Abstract:

Project proposal review is the core of science foundation management. This article systematically overviews existing key issues in panel committee meetings in final reviews of scientific research grants, which are becoming an increasing concern in the science community. Moreover, it reassesses the importance and functionality of panel committee meetings, and accordingly provides suggestions and measures based on the "verification-rectification-and-selection" principle for further installation and improvement of the panel committee meeting mechanism.

Key words: Natural science project funding, Panel committee meetings, "Verification-rectification-and- selection"
