GRiP is led by CNC Associate Director of Research, Dr. Karen Gamble. This program offers grant writers an opportunity to have free access to pre-review to increase the level of competitiveness of proposals submitted by UAB Neuroscience faculty and students for federal and non-federally funded proposals. The CNC will facilitate a quality peer pre-review of proposals by experienced neuroscientists, peers in your discipline. Faculty, staff scientists, post-doctoral fellows and graduate students are all welcome to request grant proposal pre-reviews. We work with the grant writer to identify 2-3 reviewers from UAB and other institutions*. The CNC underwrites the fees given to reviewers for their written reviews, at the following levels: $300 for a full proposal review (3 week turn-around), $250 for a Research Strategy and Specific Aims review (2 week turn-around), and $150 for review of a Specific Aims page (2-5 day turn-around).
