New Year ’s Resolutions: NIH Funding Edition

New year, same list of resolutions as last year, right? Consider freshening them up with some suggestions from NIH staff. Start the year with a plan. If your NIH-funded research generates scientific data, make sure you develop a data management and sharing plan, specifically. Keep it simple. We’re taking this one to heart and working to simplify the peer review framework of research project grant applications and improve NRSA fellowship review in 2025. On  a related note, make it easy on reviewers  by making sure your application clearly responds to the review criteria found in the funding opportunity. Embrace change. And not just grant application form changes. If you’re an early career researcher, soak up this advice on discovering strengths to advance your career. Staying up to date on grants policy changes is a good idea too (or hear the latest news directly from the experts at this Jan. 31, 2024 webinar). End on a good note. Starting in January 2024, NIH will begin to send an additional reminder closeout email notification 90 days after the project period end date to promote timely closeout.
