Sad milestone: As of today more than half of scheduled study sections this year did not meet as scheduled. Sections not meeting as scheduled today (2/26): BCO, CIHB, HHD, LHB, MABS, PMDA, TAG, CDIN, MPPA, ZRG IIDB-F. As of now, the NIH has no new postings to the Federal Register since 01/21/25.
Wondering if your study section cancelled? I update this sheet daily. As of today, 56/124 study sections that should have met since Jan 2, 2025 have "not met as scheduled." docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
