The Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), through its FCCN services unit, invites national and international experts to collaborate as evaluators and/or experts in national initiatives for access to computing resources. The first phase for expression of interest is open until October 15, 2025.
This expression of interest aims to strengthen the database of qualified, multidisciplinary evaluators with experience in scientific evaluation for the Advanced Computing Project Competitions (CPCA), ensuring a rigorous, transparent, and impartial process. Additionally, experts are sought for other FCT initiatives, such as AI Factories, which will require specialized user support.
The collaboration of selected experts will be punctual, upon invitation, and will include adequate compensation for their time and technical contribution.
The invitation is open to experts from all scientific and computational fields.
Experts in the following fields are eligible to apply: High Performance Computing (HPC), Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Computational Modeling and Simulation, Scientific Data Analysis and Management, Data Visualization and Interaction, and Computational Applications in Science, Engineering, or Digital Humanities. Prior experience on scientific or technological review panels is highly valued.
All interested parties must complete the online form, which is already available, and more information about the advanced computing projects.
