What is the potential for the proposed activity to

advance knowledge and understanding within its own field or across different fields (Intellectual Merit); and

benefit society or advance desired societal outcomes (Broader Impacts)?

This is the weakest part of the proposal. The authors do not appear to take this requirement seriously or are unable to fullfill this requirement.

To what extent do the proposed activities suggest and explore creative, original, or potentially transformative concepts?

Is the plan for carrying out the proposed activities well-reasoned, well-organized, and based on a sound rationale? Does the plan incorporate a mechanism to assess success?

How well qualified is the individual, team, or institution to conduct the proposed activities?

Are there adequate resources available to the PI (either at the home institution or through collaborations) to carry out the proposed activities?
