ERCEA does not recommend, as a common practice, to include names of individual researchers. Exceptions can be requested and have to be motivated. However, a list of all team members will be requested together with each financial report.
Reviewers will evaluate independently each eligible proposal submitted under the ERC 2020 Proof of Concept (ERC-2020-PoC) call, and mark it as "very good", "good" or "fail" for each of the three evaluation criteria.
The applicants are provided with feedback on the outcome of the evaluation through an information letter and an evaluation report. The evaluation report indicates whether the proposal is retained for funding or not, and provides the "very good", "good" or "fail" status for each of the three criteria, with corresponding comments given by the reviewers.
More information on the evaluation procedure can be found in the ERC Work Programme 2020, in the section relevant to the call.
For the ERC 2020 PoC call, although it is not mandatory to provide the names of individual team members or their CVs, the PoC plan needs to include justification that the persons working on the tasks are well qualified for the purpose.
The description of the team needs to be filled in the Part B – section 3b. More information on the submission and evaluation procedures can be found in the ERC Work Programme 2020, in the section relevant to the call, as well as in the guide Information for Applicants to the Proof of Concept Grant 2020 Call.
For the Proof of Concept (ERC-2020-PoC) 2020 call, applicants submit the whole proposal that will be evaluated in a single step by independent experts. For more information on the evaluation process, please refer to the ERC Work Programme 2020.
