Major Changes For NIH Applications Due On or After January 25, 2010

Applications submitted for due dates on or after January 25, 2010 using incorrect forms or following old instructions will be delayed and may not be reviewed.

Due to changes resulting from the Enhancing Peer Review initiative, applications for due dates on or after January 25, 2010 require:

  • Restructured application forms
  • New instructions including shorter page limits

These changes affect ALL applications (new, renewal, resubmission, and revision).

Applicants who are eligible for continuous submission may continue to use current forms and instructions through February 7, 2010 for R01, R21 and R34 AIDS applications that would otherwise have been due on January 7, 2010.

In December, you will need to download the new application forms (applies to both electronic SF 424 (R&R) and paper PHS 398). When the time comes, be sure to choose the correct application package:

  • SF 424 (R&R): ADOBE_FORMS_B
  • PHS 398: Revision date "June 2009"

Steps for Success:

  • Read about requirement changes now to be able to begin writing the Research Strategy section of the application.
  • In December, go back to the updated FOA or reissued Parent Announcement and download the new application package and instructions.
  • Read the new application instructions carefully.
  • For due dates on or after January 25, submit applications using the new application forms and instructions.

How to Get Informed

To better understand the new requirements, the Enhancing Peer Review Website has a page dedicated to the application changes and has made available to you a number of resources on the Training and Communications Resources page including:

Additional information is also available throughout the website including:

A video overview of the changes will be available on the Enhancing Peer Review Web site under Training and Communication Resources in mid-November.

The Enhancing Peer Review website will continue to be updated with additional resources as they are developed. To be notified when new application packages become available, sign up on the Enhancing Peer Review LISTSERV or look out for an announcement in the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts.
