A. AXA Research Fund
eligibility/requirements: registration of the institution more than 3 days
before deadline; high level of excellence and international scope; institutions
from EU and associated countries, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea,
India, Brazil, and Mexico or any institution proposing a citizen from one of
the above countries; focus on environmental, life, and societal RISKs; projects
should rely on specific RISK identification, definition, assessment, modelling,
mitigation, prevention etc.; the Fund is supposed to become "RISK observatory";
INSTITUTIONAL only, no individual applications; unclear links to corporate
business?; unclear bottom-up and top-down components of the application process;
the program claims to aim on world-class research and scientific excellence
as if it were more applied version of the ERC, but the statistics shows that
53% of the allocated funding ended up in France (6 of 12 chairs), suggesting
that other criteria than scientific excellence enter the evaluation process.
