We assist investigators in the design and preparation of grant applications for external and internal funding by organizing mock study sections.
We offer investigators the opportunity to have grant applications reviewed and critiqued by an expert panel of UNC reviewers. Mock study sections are particularly helpful in regards to applications responding to RFAs where resubmissions are not allowed.
Mock Study Section
We assist investigators in the design and preparation of grant applications for external and internal funding by organizing mock study sections.
We offer investigators the opportunity to have grant applications reviewed and critiqued by an expert panel of UNC reviewers. Mock study sections are particularly helpful in regards to applications responding to RFAs where resubmissions are not allowed.
This service requires sufficient lead time (i) for the panel to be assembled, (ii) for the application to be comprehensively reviewed, and (iii) for the investigator to implement the changes recommended by the panel.
