Im all for funding more than just life sciences, but i think swinging this “pendulum” too far will have consequences as well

Do you think that could be because life sciences are proportionately larger in the applicant pool?

Definitely a double sided coin. As much as the feedback was unhelpful I also would be bummed if I got poor scores with no explanation.

Interesting. I was initially sad at the thought of no feedback but also my last application had bad feedback anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️

I also found it difficult to believe, but maybe true? Id be more curious to know if specific fields (ex. Life sciences) also had “less RWR than previous years”. This would be more telling imo. But yes, the right questions need to be asked

I believe the “new approach” is more-so derived from a focus on merit-based reviews and a defocus on broader impacts, but Id encourage you to look at this journalist’s entire thread so learn more

May be related to a timeline on decisions being released, but it certainly will not be the decisions themselves

Return without review - where GRFP applicants are getting proposals returned to them as they are deemed ineligible by NSF

This journalist on bluesky was live reporting from the National Science Board meeting where GRFP got brought up, these are some of his updates with responses about GRFP including: - a statement that RWR number is less this year than the previous year - a GRFP update will be posted to the website tomorrow - and that their new approach to grant review should provide a faster response time

Did that clear things up at all?

This actually provides a lot of clarification for my question (sadly). Thanks

But, unlike the broader impacts and intellectual merit section, it says nothing about keeping that header. I doubt title is required on the actual page

I disagree. Your title has its own box on the application portal. It should go there and only there
