Course Description

The Center for Scientific Review (CSR) has produced a video of a mock study section meeting to provide an inside look at how NIH grant applications are reviewed for scientific and technical merit. The video shows how outside experts assess applications and how review meetings are conducted to ensure fairness. The video also includes information on what applicants can do to improve the chances their applications will receive a positive review. Inside the NIH Grant Review Process", is a 39-minute video that includes excerpts from the reviews of 3 types of NIH applications: R01 - Research project grant, K08 - Mentored clinical scientist career development grant and R03 - Small research grant.  To make the video both authentic and authoritative, real reviewers volunteered to review real but altered and disguised applications. NIH staff members also volunteered to participate in this video, which was developed by CSR in collaboration with the NIH Office of Extramural Research.
