Urgent NIH grant review for Type 1 Diabetes

If you are a researcher or public health expert with an NIH grant application for Collaborative Research Using Samples and Data from Type 1 Diabetes Clinical Studies, the NIH Center for Scientific Review will hold a closed virtual meeting on December 16, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. to review and evaluate those grant applications. The meeting was delayed by a 43-day government shutdown and is being held urgently so evaluations can be submitted to national advisory councils for timely funding recommendations.

Meeting closed to protect applicant confidentiality

The meeting will be closed to the public under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(4) and 552b(c)(6) because discussions could disclose confidential trade secrets, patentable material, or personal information about individuals associated with the grant applications. This keeps applicants' proprietary and personal information private during the review.
