NIH grant reviews rescheduled urgently

If you are a researcher applying for the Small Grant Program for NHLBI K Award recipients (R03), your applications will be reviewed at a virtual meeting on December 17, 2025. The meeting was delayed by a 43-day government shutdown and is being held urgently so evaluations can be sent to national advisory councils for timely funding recommendations.

Grant review meeting closed to the public

The December 17, 2025 meeting will be closed to the public under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(4) and 552b(c)(6). The notice says grant applications and discussions could disclose confidential trade secrets, patentable material, or personal information, so the meeting is not open for public attendance.
