FP6 Evaluators
At the start of FP5 there were 15% women in the experts database. This had 
increased to 18% at the end of FP5. There are now 25% women in the FP6 
database, we are clearly progressing. However, we still need more women in 
this database. If you were an evaluator in FP5, you must re-apply. The 
procedure is simple. You will be offered the possibility to migrate your 
details to the new system. If you were not an evaluator in FP5, please 
consider becoming an evaluator in FP6. Details can be found at 
http://www.cordis.lu/experts/fp6_candidature.htm
