How is Rethink accountable for the funds it allocates to researchers?
Rethink will be fully accountable for the funds it transfers to individual researchers and will only provide grants to researchers that our medical peer-review committee has ranked for scientific merit and relevance. Researchers who are funded by Rethink will be sent a Utilization Form, which they must complete at the end of the grant period. This form will require that the researcher report back on how the money was spent and what the findings of their project were. In doing so, they must provide a list of publications (medical journals) and abstracts (presentations at meetings) that arose from the funding Rethink provided to them and what individuals, such as graduate students, (if any) received training as a result of Rethink’s funding. They must also explain how they expect to use their findings to build upon and further their research program and obtain further grants.
