I got another ND on my NIH grant. While it’s hard to be too frustrated with the current state of things, this one was super frustrating as scored last time and thought the idea was much stronger and addressed the critiques well from the last round.
This happened to 3 of my 5 grants: assigned, de-assigned, study section canceled, study section rescheduled, grants de-assigned. One should get reviewed and I bet other will be de-assigned again. No chaos here.
Like cancelled or working on a new date? I have one at a member conflict SEP through NIDDK that is in a similar boat. Date was taken down. And no info up on it anymore.
I have 4 R01s getting reviewed this cycle. The two that have been moved already to April. One other that was supposed to be reviewed yesterday and today also just got moved to April. And the 4th had its date removed so am sure that one is being updated.
Well the study section that was supposed to meet yesterday and today for one of my grants got an updated date of 04/22 on commons. I still don’t see it or any new ones in the federal register but not sure how long those take to post.
The 2nd of 5 study sections that I have grants being reviewed at got dreaded * - “Denotes this meeting did not take place as scheduled” by it. Federal register is supposedly opened up, but still the last study section posted was on 1/21, so will be 15-35 days at least for rescheduling, I bet.
