With support from experienced researchers at LSUHSC SOM, this service provides pre-review of grant proposals prior to their submission to extramural funding agencies.  Applications need to be submitted to SOMResearch@lsuhsc.edu 4-6 weeks prior to the grant deadline.  A critique will be provided within 2 weeks of assignment to a reviewer.  Faculty interested in utilizing this service, should submit the proposal title and abstract when requesting the service, to facilitate the process of reviewer recruitment.  Intent to submit your proposal for pre-review can be sent to SOMResearch@lsuhsc.edu. There are no deadlines for submission.

Please note:

• This service is available not only for completed draft proposals, but can be used for proposals that are in the early stages.
• Reviewers can evaluate Specific Aims pages, prior to embarking on writing the complete proposal.
• The service can be used for grants that are under revision, in which case submission of the summary statement is strongly encouraged.
