Study Sections
Study Sections are panels of experts that review and evaluate grant applications for research funding, such as those from government agencies like the NIH. They assess the scientific quality, feasibility, and significance of proposed projects to determine which deserve support. Each Panel typically specializes in a specific research area, ensuring a knowledgeable and thorough review. Their goal is to promote innovative, impactful research by selecting the most promising proposals while maintaining fairness and scientific integrity in the funding process.
