Scientific Level

Access Review Panel (ARP)

It is an external independent peer review panel, responsible for the selection and scientific evaluation of the proposals submitted by potential users requesting access to the infrastructure. It is composed of 13 independent members with collective scientific knowledge in nanoscience and nano-to-micro analysis and technology, covering all the science domains that can be supported by NFFA-DI.

The panel is yet to be nominated.

Technical Liaison Network (TLNet)

It ensures the uptake in the catalogue of the upgraded instrumentation, the monitoring of its effective online status, the organization of the access commissioning phase to be carried out within PNRR, and its full implementation for distributing the access to the nodes according to the best option/best schedule for a successful and timely access performance.
