For a variety of its own reasons not applicable to the Committee, the agency may implement all/most of the recommendations,
but few times recommendations are not implemented.
|
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 recommended for funding.
