NIH has been hard at work over the last two years developing guidance and training to help prepare the community for the implementation of the simplified review framework that went into effect on January 25, 2025 and applies to applications for most research project grants. The framework is a new way of reviewing the same research strategies you’ve always developed, which means neither the components nor the structure of your application are expected to change.
