NIH is implementing a simplified framework for the peer review of the majority of competing research project grant (RPG) applications, beginning with submissions with due dates of January 25, 2025. The simplified peer review framework aims to better facilitate the mission of scientific peer review – identification of the strongest, highest-impact research – by:
1. Enabling peer reviewers to better focus on answering the key questions necessary to assess the scientific and technical merit of proposed research projects:
- Should the proposed research project be conducted?
- Can the proposed research project be conducted?
2. Mitigating the effect of reputational bias by refocusing the evaluation of investigator/environment to within the context of the proposed research.
3. Reducing reviewer burden by shifting policy compliance activities to NIH staff.

Emory began a campaign to have all researchers’ Open Researcher
and Contributor IDs (ORCID) linked to Emory University. As a reminder, ORCID is a global not-for-profit organization that offers researchers a unique digital persistent identifier (DPI) that accurately connects you to your scholarly work throughout your career. Getting and using a free ORCID iD can help researchers save time and get credit for their work in funding, publishing, and research reporting workflows. Funding organizations, including the NIH, require ORCID iDs or similar identifiers to apply for and receive federal funds.
