0:00 - Introduction

5:55 - Mini-tutorial: New Factor 1 Scoring Criteria

20:54 - Question 1: Until when am I eligible to apply for the K99/R00?

21:31 - Question 2: I am submitting a grant in response to an RFA. Is it possible to know what study sections will likely review my proposal by finding study sections that reviewed grants under the same funding announcement in the past submission cycles?

23:54 - Question 3: Do you have any resources specific to renewal applications?

24:50 - Question 4: Has the NIH provided you any details on when they will roll out the new biosketch and other support forms which will take effect on May 25th, 2025?

26:00 - Question 5: If NIH encourages a PI to "convert" their R01 to a MIRA instead of submitting an R01 RENEWAL, what does that mean in terms of deadlines and new/renewal status of a proposal? Do they just bypass the R01 deadline and submit a "new" MIRA proposal by the MIRA deadline?

27:17 - Question 6: Do you have a suggested strategy for when there are split opinions between reviewers in the summary statement on an R01? One very favorable reviewer, one unfavorable reviewer, and one lukewarm.

31:00 - Question 7: What is usually the main reason why a scored R01 application becomes Not Discussed on resubmission?

33:20 - Question 8: Is there a recommended point at which someone is too far along in their career for a K and should be submitting for R's?

35:58 - Question 9: Our research administrator told me that there is a budget section that can include costs associated with changes or adjustments in the research setting that will make it possible for an individual with a disability to perform the essential functions associated with their role on the project. How does this have to be reflected in the budget justification in an R01 that will recruit personnel?

37:10 - Question 10: I got a close to payline score in an A1 R01 and the PO mentioned that my grant will be discussed at the advisory council for potential funding over the payline. When is it a good time to contact the PO again to ask about the meeting outcome?

38:29 - Question 11: What difference does it make with a letter of intent?

39:44 - Final remarks
