Proposed Collection Title: Early Career Reviewer Program Online
Application and Vetting System--0925-0695, REVISION--expiration date
06/30/2023, Center for Scientific Review (CSR), National Institutes of
Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: The Center for Scientific
Review (CSR) is the portal for NIH grant applications and their review
for scientific merit. Our mission is to see that all NIH grant
applications receive fair, independent, expert, and timely reviews--
free from inappropriate influences--so NIH can fund the most promising
research. To accomplish this goal, Scientific Review Officers (SRO)
form study sections consisting of scientists who have the technical and
scientific expertise to evaluate the merit of grant applications. Study
section members are generally scientists who have established
independent programs of research as demonstrated by their publications
and their grant award experiences.
The CSR Early Career Reviewer program was developed to identify and
train qualified scientists who are early in their scientific careers
and who have not had prior CSR review experience. The goals of the
program are to expose these early career scientists to the peer review
experience so that they become more competitive as applicants as well
as to enrich the existing pool of NIH reviewers. Currently, the online
application software, the Early Career Reviewer Application and Vetting
System, is accessed online by applicants to the Early Career Reviewer
Program who provide information such as their name, contact
information, a description of their areas of expertise, their study
section preferences, and their professional Curriculum Vitae. This
Information Collection Request (ICR) is to revise the Early Career
Reviewer Application and Vetting System by removing several optional
socio-demographic questions.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 555.
