Suggestions by reviewers
- The inclusion of a working group with specific responsibility for dissemination and training could be considered. - For example, the education programme for use of the MITOEAGLE data base could be the responsibility of the new working group.
- This Action will benefit from a more comprehensive analysis of its long term impact on European society; as an example, the proponents say that this Action will help to distinguish noise from truth in the field of mitochondrial biology: many "noisy data" on mitochondria and the process of aging, which has a crucial impact on the society and economies of Europe.
Comment of the Scientific Committee
- The proposed Action must develop and implement specific plans to increase the involvement of Early Career Investigators and for maintaining and monitoring gender balance.
