Sally Kornbluth, PhD, vice dean for basic science, alerts faculty that the Center for Scientific Review at NIH has issued a memo on resubmission of grants that have been rejected after the second submission, including the following advice:
- Some of the stronger research aims you originally proposed in an R01 application, for instance, may be proposed in an R21 application so long as you follow the requirements for this smaller and different type of grant. There is no limit to the amount of overlap if you apply for a different type of grant.
- Consider putting the aims and approach in your unsuccessful A1 application on hold until 37 months after your A0 (not A1) submission. After this time, the same application will automatically be considered new.
