Group discussed the process for these requests coming to our team as this is still not completely clear. Randy will email the person doing the triage for Catalyst PCIR (Faith Fortune) to make sure that she is aware of how to best use Valerie to assist her in this process. Randy reviewed the instructions for this type of review especially noting that studies that are associated with NIH funding do NOT require scientific review. Rather, the PI for the study uploads the summary statement and that score is used for priority of support. For those studies (the majority) the role of the reviewer is primarily to ensure adequate resources are available to support the study.
