| Description |
There are sometimes a few proposals which were not funded in their entirety, those few being scaled back from their original
level of requested funding (allowable under the program).
|
The mission of the Center for Scientific Review is to provide the funding Institutes and Centers of NIH with the scientific
and technical merit of research grant applications submitted to the NIH. It is these Institutes or Centers and their advisory
councils that make funding decisions.NIH Peer Review Committees are involved in the initial review of research grant applications.
The NIH dual peer review system is mandated by statute in accordance with section 492 of the Public Health Service Act. The
charge to this committee is to determine scientific and technical merit of the individual grants or contracts. These recommendations
are forwarded to Federal officials who generally accept the committee’s recommendations and favorable applications are then
forwarded for the second level of review performed by Institute and Center (IC) National Advisory Councils or Boards. Only
applications that are favorably recommended by both the initial peer review committee and the Advisory Council may be funded.
