Clinical Research Guide
Have you ever
wondered where to find help with preparing, submitting and managing a
clinical research grant? The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
has created a new website which combines policies and procedures with
practical guidance on grant application, review, funding and oversight.
This is an excellent resource for the new investigator and provides easy
access to specific information for the more experienced investigator.
Please take a moment to visit the site and to share it with colleagues
who may find it useful.
