New investigators are important to the future of biomedical research.
In order to allow new investigators maximum freedom in identifying the level and period of support needed for the work they are planning and thus enhance their opportunities to establish careers in research, NIH has announced a new policy . This notice will address questions that may arise during the period between this announcement and the full implementation of that policy. During this time of transition, NIH will make every effort to ensure that new investigators are not disadvantaged and to accommodate their needs. On Proposed New Categories of Research Eligible For Expedited Review OPRR and FDA have simultaneously published separate but identical Notices in the Federal Register seeking public comment on suggested revisions to the current list of research eligible for expedited review by an Institutional Review Board. The comment period ends March 10, 1998.
