| APPLICATION AND AWARD PROCESS |
| |
· Award Procedure |
| |
|
Grants: Each application receives a dual scientific review by non-NIH scientists. Awards are issued by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. National Research Service Awards: Applications are reviewed for scientific merit by an appropriate study section committee or by an institute review committee. If recommended for approval and a decision is made to make an award, a formal award notice will be sent to the applicant and sponsor. Institutional Awards are issued by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. All accepted SBIR/STTR applications are evaluated for scientific and technical merit by an appropriate scientific peer review panel and by a national advisory council or board. All applications receiving a priority score compete for the available SBIR/STTR set-aside funds on the basis of scientific and technical merit and the commercial potential of the proposed research, program relevance, and program balance among the areas of research. |
