K Club Mock Study Section Preparation

NIH Study Sections • Applications reviewed by Scientific Review Groups (SRG’s) • Integrated Review Groups (IRG’s) – Clusters of SRG’s around a scientific area – Assignment may be made to an IRG that then will make assignment to one of its SRG’s.

• Standing Study Sections – Both permanent and temporary members – Review most investigator-initiated applications (R01, R03, R21, R15, and K’s)

NIH Study Sections • SBIR/STTR Study Sections – Review Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Technology Transfer Research (STTR) applications – Only Temporary Members

• Special Emphasis Panel – One-time or recurring panels to review applications on special topics and member conflict applications – Only Temporary Members

Study Section Members • Chair • Mix of senior and junior reviewers, usually NIH -funded investigators • Permanent members • Temporary members • Scientific Review Officer (SRO) • Grants Technical Assistant

The Meeting • • • • •

Face-to-face Videoconference Teleconference Internet-assisted meeting Usually three cycles per year for standing Study Sections

Reviewer Assignments • Usually based on expertise • Always consider that your grant may be reviewed by someone outside your area and write accordingly • Access over NIH Commons IAR • Must post reviews one week before meeting to allow reviewers to see each other’s reviews and to generate streamline list

Reviewer Assignments • Keep in mind – Reviewers are busy people – May have to review 8-10 grants, mix of primary, secondary and tertiary reviewer roles – Do not make your grant a chore to read! – Avoid • Redundant/monotonous text (Break it up!) • Figures too small • Try to emphasize the novel, innovative and high impact aspects of your proposal

The Meeting • • • •

Run by Chair assisted by SRO Introductions Explanation of process Reading of streamline list – Any streamlined application may be saved for discussion by one member of the panel – Streamlined applicants receive unedited critiques

• Best scoring grants reviewed first • Discussion limited to 10 min per grant – Close scores-Less discussion – Wide scores-More discussion

The Meeting • Preliminary scores from all three reviewers • Primary reviewer concisely summarizes proposal • Primary reviewer summarizes their critique, focusing on strengths and weaknesses • Secondary and tertiary reviewer add any additional points • Open discussion focused on points of disagreement

The Meeting • Chair calls for final round of scores from reviewers • All panel members record their scores • Anyone scoring outside the reviewers’ range must speak up with a reason • Budget and Additional Review Considerations

Review Template

Remember

• Criterion scores are given to every section of the grant, including the candidate, career development plan, research plan, mentors and environment and institutional support. • However, strong scores in all categories are not needed for the application to be judged to likely have a major impact. • Also, mostly high criterion ratings may be given, but the overall impact score is lower because one critically important criterion is not highly rated.

Remember

• Most reviewers try to provide constructive feedback to applicants, especially if a revision is needed. Pay attention to the reviews! • Nevertheless, a thick skin is helpful. • Make every effort to become known to reviewers via national meetings, workshops, committees and other venues to allow connection of a face with a name and some familiarity with your work. • Later in your career, make every effort to serve on a NIH Study Section.
