  2. Pre-submission review Pedro Fernandez-Funez, PhD Assistant Professor Department of Neurology

  3. By now, you should… • Understand the complexity of the NIH grant proposal • Identify all the components • Work on a timeline to complete the proposal on time

  4. Review: Key documents Documents to upload and submit: Minimum of 12 Scientific proposal: ✔Abstract ✔Narrative ✔Specific Aims ✔Research Strategy ✔References Information: ✔Cover letter ✔PI Biosketch ✔Resource sharing ✔Facilities, Environment ✔Equipment Budget: ✔Modular/detailed budget ✔Budget justification

  5. Preview: Additional documents Extra documents: Key Personnel Biosketch Support letter(s) Consortium Multiple PI Proprietary info Regulatory documents (depending on proposed research): Human subjects IRB permit Vertebrate animals IACUC permit Documents to upload and submit: 15-20

  6. Timeline for submission Aims, Sign+Innov for Dept. presentation 2.5 months Complete Research Strategy for COM 1 month R01 deadline Received by NIH Announce intent to submit 3-4 months Aims, Sign+Innov for COM review 2 months Final Submission 10-15 days Title, Biosk, budget COI, humans? Animals? 3 months Budget justific, Animals, humans, facilities 1.5 months -Upload to NIH form -Upload on PeopleSoft -Approvals: PI(s), Chair(s), Dean -COM-RAC review -DSR-UF review and submit Jun 5 Feb Mar 19 Apr 5 May 5 May 22 Mar 5

  7. The Budget trap ! • You don’t have to submit a detailed budget to the NIH, if below 250K/year • BUT, you HAVE to your college !

  8. Completing the science • Project Summary/Abstract- 30 lines or less • You will need to send an introduction to application only if this is a resubmission. • Specific Aims- 1 page !!! • Research Strategy – Page limits by mechanism or guidelines (12 p. R01, 6 p. R21, R03) • Significance and Innovation: 1 page, part of Research Strategy • References Cited-Full citations, no page limits

  9. Summary / Abstract • Could be considered the most important part of your application since every reviewer in the panel will likely read it • 30 lines or less ! • Do not include proprietary information • If awarded, it will appear on RePORTER

  10. Summary / Abstract • Stand alone document: most reviewers will not read the specific aims or the proposal • Should be written last to make sure it clearly reflects the content of your proposal • Open by describing gap in knowledge followed by key sentences in the Specific Aims • Copy the Specific Aims and primary methods • Finish with statements of Significance and Innovation

  11. Project Narrative • No more than 2 or 3 sentences • Layman language • Meant to describe the relevance to public health and how it relates to the NIH mission Public Health Relevance/Narrative: Carolina Wahlby, 2010 Large-scale screening experiments that test the effects of thousands of chemicals or genetic perturbants by microscopy and image analysis can discover new treatments and help biomedical scientists understand disease mechanisms. Microscopy screens of cultured cells are routine, but researchers wish to study complex processes like metabolism and infection in a whole animal like the tiny worm Caenorhabditis elegans, for which existing image analysis methods are insufficient. The goal of this research is to develop open-source software to automatically identify and measure C. elegans in microscopy images, thereby making it possible for researchers worldwide to screen a wide variety of complex biological processes related to human disease.

  17. Remember ! • Be responsive to requests from your grants people. After all, it is YOUR grant • Your grants person does not submit directly to NIH. Many internal steps to get it through the system

  18. Congratulations !You completed the course !
