Preparing for Funding Opportunities Using the Simplified Review Framework  
Noni Byrnes, Ph.D., Director of NIH Center for Scientific Review Last October, we announced that NIH was implementing a simplified review framework for most research project grants (RPGs).

Why Do I Sometimes Get Different RePORTER Results when Using Advanced Search vs. Quick Search?
Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools Expenditures and Results (RePORTER) is an electronic tool that allows users to search a repository of both intramural and extramural NIH-funded research projects and publications and patents resulting from NIH funding. Users can query the system in two distinct ways, either via “Advanced Search” or “Quick Search.” But its worth noting there can be a difference in the query results depending on which approach is used. As we first explained on this NIH Open Mike blog post, Quick Search is helpful for performing simple queries. Advanced Search allows you to use precisely de...
