CSR Director's Seminar - Peer Review Changes in Canada

CSR Director's Seminar Dr. Jane Aubin, Chief Scientific Officer and Vice President of Research, and Ms. Jen O'Donoughe, Executive Director of Reforms Implementation at the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) will provide an overview of how CIHR is reforming the grants and peer review processes to transform the way investigator initiated research is funded. This includes implementing two new funding schemes and making significant changes to peer review processes including the use of application focused review, structured peer review, remote review and new scoring processes. CIHR is mid-way through their implementation and will provide an overview of the results of the early pilot studies which are showing improved effectiveness as well as reductions in both applicant and reviewer burden. The presentation will also highlight lessons learned to date. You may submit questions for the speakers to csrdirectorsseminar@mail.nih.govAir date: 4/27/2015 10:00:00 AM
