Scoring Process

Scoring Guidelines

  • All applications may be initially reviewed by three Scientific Review Committee members as part of a triage and are marked as competitive vs. non-competitive.
  • Each competitive application is then further reviewed by two Scientific Review Committee members based on the criteria listed below.
  • The highest scoring applications will then be discussed at length by all Scientific Review Committee members at a review meeting. The awardees and runners up are then selected by consensus of the committee.
  • All the applications that make it through to this stage are deemed highly competitive and will receive feedback outlining their research proposal strengths and areas for development.
