ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCIENCES PROGRAM PROJECT GRANT APPLICATIONS RELEASE DATE: July 8, 2003 NOTICE: NOT-ES-03-012 National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) (http://www.niehs.nih.gov/) Change In Review Policy For Program Project Grant (P01) Applications The purpose of this announcement is to notify potential applicants for Program Project Grants that effective immediately, NIEHS will no longer be conducting site visits as part of the review of these applications. Applicants for P01 support should submit complete applications addressing all of the review criteria as stated in the NIEHS Guidelines for submission of P01 applications. These guidelines are available at http://www.niehs.nih.gov/dert/programs/p01.htm. Early communication with NIEHS review staff should be considered to ensure submission of a complete application. Review procedures to be instituted for P01 applications will include telephone contact by the Scientific Review Administrator (SRA) to the Principal Investigator the night prior to the review meeting. The purpose of this phone call will be to alert the Principal Investigator of the need for additional material or information. Said material or information should be made available to the reviewers prior to or during the review meeting which will occur the following day. During the review, a maximum of 60 minutes will be allotted for a teleconference between the review committee and the Principal Investigator and assembled co-investigators. The purpose of this teleconference will be to allow the investigators interaction with the committee and to answer questions or to address concerns that the reviewers may have regarding the application. The Program Project Grant is an assistance award for the support of a broadly based interdisciplinary research program that has a well- defined central research focus. It may include support for common supporting resources (cores) required for the conduct of the component research projects. Interrelationships between component projects are expected to result in a greater contribution to the program goals than if each project were pursued separately. Receipt dates for PO1 applications are June 1 and October 1 of each year. NIEHS will not accept P01 applications for the February NIH application receipt date.
