How will Roadmap Transformative Research Project applications be reviewed?
Applications will be reviewed by NIH staff for completeness and then by a multi-disciplinary group of scientific experts convened by the Center for Scientific Review (CSR) in accordance with NIH peer review procedures and using review criteria outlined in the FOA. Significance, innovation and transformative potential will be the primary determinants of scientific merit. Applications will be reviewed in special study sections with other Roadmap Transformative Program applications, not with conventional R01 applications. The review panels will be looking for convincing evidence that the project has the potential to transform and significantly impact important paradigms in biomedical or behavioral research. They will also assess whether there is compelling justification for use of the Roadmap Transformative Research program review process as opposed to standard peer review.
