Program Purpose
The goal of the K-R grant program is to provide a formal three-level process to assist scholars in the submission of K and R series NIH grants:
- Initial face-to-face review of the specific aims page and initial study design between the junior faculty member and two to three senior mentors (from different disciplines) with a track record of NIH funding and experience in the peer review process.
- Detailed review of the entire application by one to two senior faculty members
- Careful review by a grants editor with experience in grant writing and submission.
Eligibility
All faculty members submitting K and R series NIH grants are qualified to utilize this program.
