How does the new Resubmission Policy change current practice and what are the implementation dates?
Previously, an application could be revised and resubmitted twice. Under this new policy, which has gone into effect for fiscal year 2010, applications can only be revised and resubmitted once. To give a specific example for R01s, new applications that were submitted for February 5, 2009 will only be allowed a single resubmission. Similarly, new competing continuation R01 applications that were submitted for March 5, 2009 will also be allowed only a single resubmission. By reducing the number of resubmissions, the goal is to permit funding of larger numbers of new and first resubmission applications and thereby to allow investigators to spend less time revising and resubmitting and to start doing their research projects sooner.
