 Review procedures and selection criteria 
 
NSERC literacy and fellowships selection panels review all PDF operations. The selection panels estimate each operation according to the selection criteria described in the Selection Commission companion for Postgraduate Literacy – Doctoral and Postdoctoral Fellowships programs. 
Note that NSERC may promote equity and diversity by giving award precedence to meritorious operations from those who tone- identify as Indigenous and/ or as a woman if sufficient finances become available. The selection panels are organized according to the following broad discipline orders 
 
 cellular and molecular biology 
 chemical, biomedical, and accouterments wisdom engineering 
 chemistry 
 civil and artificial engineering 
 computing Dolores 
 electrical engineering 
 elaboration and ecology 
 geosciences 
 fine Dolores 
 mechanical engineering 
 drugs and astronomy 
 factory and beast biology 
 psychology 
 The exploration subject law ( see List of exploration subject canons for literacy and fellowships) entered into the operation will determine the selection commission in which the operation will be estimated. NSERC may assign the operation to a different commission if it determines that the subject matter is more applicable to another commission. 
 
 NSERC expects selection commission members to constantly guard against the possibility of unconscious bias impacting the decision-making process, whether these impulses are grounded on an academy of study, abecedarian versus usable exploration, certain sub-disciplines, areas of exploration or approaches ( including arising bones), size or character of an institution, age, gender and/ or other particular factors. 
 
 NSERC is acting on the substantiation that achieving a more indifferent, different, and inclusive Canadian exploration enterprise is essential to creating the excellent, innovative, and poignant exploration necessary to advance knowledge and understanding and to respond to original, public, and global challenges. This principle informs the commitments described in the Tri-agency statement on equity, diversity, and addition. For further information consult the document Equity, diversity, and addition considerations at each stage of the exploration process. 
 
 In preparing your operation, you should consult the Selection Criteria and Pointers section and excursus B of the Selection Commission companion for Postgraduate Literacy – Doctoral and Postdoctoral Fellowships programs, which provides useful information on what commission members look for in assessing operations. You should also read the Instructions for completing an operation – form 201.
