NIH eSubmission Items of Interest – March 25, 2016

Check Out the Redesigned NIH Grants and Funding Site!

We have dramatically simplified Grants.nih.gov to help you find and understand the information you need more easily.  A LOT has changed. You may want to familiarize yourself with the site by poking around or taking a video tour so you know where to look when you need to find information quickly. Here's a taste of what's new: Welcome to the New NIH Grants and Funding Website!

  • Interface for the NIH Guide to Grants and Contracts
  • How to apply/application guide information
  • Grants process overview
  • Forms library
  • Presentation of policy information
  • and more…

If something doesn't work as expected or if you can't find information that used to be there, let us know by emailing the OER Webmaster.
