NIH Revises Grant Process to Improve Focus on Scientific Merit

The National Institutes of Health is taking steps to simplify the process for assessing the scientific merit of research grant applications. Changes are in place to review proposals with the potential to advance scientific knowledge and improve human health.

Previously, five criteria were individually scored using a common scale; the simplified review framework reorganizes these criteria into three factors. Two of these factors – importance of research and rigor and feasibility – are scored using a common scale. A third factor, expertise and resources, is evaluated for sufficiency only and not given a numeric score. The simplified review framework will be implemented for grant applications starting Jan. 25, 2025. To learn more, visit the NIH website.
