Call for LOIs and Reviewers

May 2026 | MidTown Collaboration Center

 

Are you interested in learning how grant applications are reviewed? Join us this May for a half-day Mock Study Section at the Midtown Collaboration Center, this interactive session will provide investigators with a behind-the-scenes look at the peer review process. Participants will observe and engage in a simulated study section to better understand how reviewers assess significance, innovation, approach, and overall impact, along with common strengths and weaknesses that influence scoring.
