Changes Coming to NIH Center for Scientific Review Study Sections The NIH Center for Scientific Review (CSR) is undergoing a multi-year effort to evaluate all CSR study sections, with about 20% of the sections evaluated each year through its ENQUIRE process. In 2019, 42 study sections were evaluated, including the Nursing and Related Clinical Sciences (NRCS) study section. Based on this review, new study sections have been formed which could impact potential NINR grant applicants. It is expected that a large portion of NINR applications will go to patient care and biobehavioral health sections that are broader than nursing. The four new study sections most relevant to nursing science are: The study section changes will be implemented for grant applications submitted for October 2020 grant deadlines and beyond, with the first reviews set for February 2021. Nurse scientists on existing review panels will be reassigned, giving broader representation of nursing science across all study sections. NINR will monitor the impact of these changes and continue to work with CSR to ensure the strength of nursing science application reviews.
