In September 2018 the board of trustees agreed to reorganize the tasks of the former Panel for International Collaboration (CIS). As from now on the CIS will also be named Cross-Domain Panel (CDP). For more information see Art. 12 of the Regulations FWO – Internal and External Peer Review.

The board of trustees may call upon the CDP for the evaluation of applications across different domains either with or without an international dimension. These include, but are not limited to, applications involving the following funding channels:

• Bilateral research cooperation, in the absence of a joint evaluation panel;
• Lead Agency Procedures (LAP), where the partner organisation can also act as Lead Agency;
• International Coordination actions;
• Pegasus Marie Curie Fellowships;
• Scientific Research Networks (WOGs);
• Special PhD Fellowships.

For participation in ERA-NET, the Flemish members of this panel will be asked to provide prior advice.
