Before submitting a proposal, you must have an ESO User Portal account

The ESO User Portal is an interface that connects ESO with its user community. It unifies account information (including username, password, and contact details) for all science and observation related web applications, giving users control over their information. The portal is designed to make the use of ESO web applications simpler and more manageable. For example, your User Portal credentials can be used to access p1 for proposal preparation and p2 for preparing observations after proposal approval.

Important: The Principal Investigator and all Co-Investigators must have an ESO User Portal account. You can register at www.eso.org/UserPortal/registration.

To participate in the ESO Distributed Peer Review (DPR), it is essential that you carefully select the keywords provided by the system that best describe your scientific profile. These keywords are used to match proposals with reviewers in the DPR. The more accurately your scientific profile is described, the better the matching will be.
