Published: July 5, 2018, 9 a.m.

b'Ever wonder why a grant application must undergo a separate round of peer review, even after a panel of experts initially weigh in on its scientific merit and provide scores for NIH to consider when making funding decisions? During this podcast, we will explore the role and functions of these advisory councils across NIH. Dr. Sally Amero with the NIH Office of Extramural Research and Dr. Rebekah Rasooly with the National Institute of Nursing Research will join us to discuss who makes up these groups, what they are tasked with reviewing, and their general decision-making processes.'
