What is NIDAs Councils role in grant reviews?
The Council provides NIDA staff with input on programmatic priorities and the appropriateness of the initial SRG review (this is sometimes called second level of review). Council members must concur with the initial review results before funding of most research applications can occur. A list of NIDA’s Council members may be found under “Committees” at this URL: www.nida.nih.gov/organization.html.
