The project proposals for GO-Bio funding go through a two-phase procedure. Initially, an expert committee reviews all submitted ideas with representatives from the international biotechnology scene. After the first selection round, the chosen teams can submit detailed applications in the second phase and present their proposition to the committee. The outcome of this committee session is then suggested to the BMBF project as GO-Bio funding. As awarding authority, the final decision lies with the BMBF.
