Moffitt Grant Review Committee

Over the years, we have been fortunate to have obtained funding for pilot projects to generate preliminary data to strengthen proposals for peer-reviewed funding. The American Cancer Society Institutional Research Grant and Miles for Moffitt are two examples of these opportunities. With NIH funding becoming more difficult to obtain, the need for pilot funding is even more important. We continue to seek ways to increase these opportunities but also recognized that we needed to formalize the support of these programs.

The Grant Review Committee (GRC) was recently formed to provide an impartial peer-review process for intramural funding opportunities and for limited-submission extramural funding opportunities. The GRC is chaired by Dr. Chellappan and other Members of the committee include the CCSG Program Leaders. Ad hoc members are also added depending on each opportunity's needs.

All opportunities undergo a two-stage review. The "Internal Sponsor" of the funding oversees the 2nd stage review and makes the final funding decision. For intramural funding opportunities, the sponsor is another group, such as the Research Executive Committee or a Center of Excellence Advisory Committee. The GRC works closely with the Internal Sponsor to meet unique opportunity requirements while also maintaining consistency across opportunities.

The group has already reviewed some limited submission proposals and recently completed the reviews for this year's Miles for Moffitt proposals. The GRC provides a number of services that are unique to the intramural and limited submission process and supplements the extensive support already provided by the divisions, sponsored research and other departments. As GRC Chair, Dr. Srikumar Chellappan oversees these activities. Administrative support is provided by Maureen Ahearn. Please contact Maureen Ahearn, x8824, if you have any questions.
 

PCORI Expertise Available Here at Moffitt

Cycle I on-line application system opens on May 15, and letters of intent are due June 15.

Scott Mears, Sr. Research Administrator in Moffitt's Office of Sponsored Research was invited to participate as a Stakeholder Reviewer for PCORI Cycle II grants. For Cycle III, he will be a Mentor to other new patient/stakeholder reviewers.

PCORI offers very unique Patient Centered Outcomes Research funding opportunities and they are continually responding and adapting to feedback received from a wide diversity of stakeholders.

If you'd like to discuss ideas you have for PCORI applications, please feel free to email Scott.Mears@moffitt.org  or call x1397, and he'll be happy to explain how review of these applications differs from NIH proposal reviews.
