The goal of this session is to provide "behind the scenes" information about the peer review committee process and activities, as well as helpful tips and "tricks of the trade" for researchers to enhance the quality of their applications. This session will focus on successful strategies for planning and writing a grant application, with particular emphasis on the restructured peer review system and new evaluation process. The latest competition results and potential strategies for coping with recent changes to the RTI and MRS programs will also be discussed.
