Martina Schmidt, Ph.D.

InPart Iof this blog post, I offered some general tips from the Office of Scientific Review (OSR) at the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH). Here in Part II, I provide some ideas on meeting several major requirements for which applications areadministratively reviewedbefore they enter the larger review process.

The first requirement iscompliance. This is a must, as the National Institutes of Health (NIH) may withdraw any application identified during the receipt, referral, and review process as noncompliant with instructions outlined in the funding opportunity announcement (FOA), theSF424 (R&R) Application Guide, and notices in theNIH Guide to Grants and Contracts.
