An open letter to the NIH cardiovascular study section reviewers.
The reviewers who serve at the National Institute of Health (NIH) study sections are in the unique position of identifying the most scientifically meritorious grant applications for consideration for funding. Consequently, the reviewers guide the direction of scientific discoveries in the US, which ultimately translate to patient care. Recently many investigators have expressed concerns about the quality of the reviews that they received from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) study section reviewers. I discuss some of these concerns, identify some of the deficiencies, and make suggestions to the reviewers on how to improve their review of the grant applications.
期刊介绍:
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry: An International Journal for Chemical Biology in Health and Disease publishes original research papers and short communications in all areas of the biochemical sciences, emphasizing novel findings relevant to the biochemical basis of cellular function and disease processes, as well as the mechanics of action of hormones and chemical agents. Coverage includes membrane transport, receptor mechanism, immune response, secretory processes, and cytoskeletal function, as well as biochemical structure-function relationships in the cell.
In addition to the reports of original research, the journal publishes state of the art reviews. Specific subjects covered by Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry include cellular metabolism, cellular pathophysiology, enzymology, ion transport, lipid biochemistry, membrane biochemistry, molecular biology, nuclear structure and function, and protein chemistry.
