SPOTLIGHT ON RESOURCES
Psst…want an insider’s look at how your NIH grant application
is being reviewed? This month’s Spotlight falls on a unique video
produced by NIH’s Center for Scientific Review that hopes to demystify
NIH’s study section meetings and the grant review process. The
39-minute video features real reviewers and NIH staff members discussing
real applications for an R01 research project grant, a K08 career development
grant and an R03 small innovative grant. Along with a clear outline of
the main criteria used by the study sections to review grants, the video
provides an interesting look at the give-and-take discussions among reviewers. The video concludes with a list of helpful hints that may improve your application’s chances during review. And if your application doesn’t succeed at first? The Center for Scientific Review asks applicants to take a deep breath, scrutinize the critiques of their application and remember that persistence is key. The video, along with accompanying documents such as the original grant applications and program announcements, can be downloaded in several different formats here. The Web site also lists a mailing address to write to for CD copies of the video. |
