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.
