Yeah, this year is chaos for study sections. Mine was scheduled for last week. We got a email from CSR communications the night before telling us it was postponed and not to join the scheduled meeting.

I am very sorry, how incredibly frustrating. From canceled and rescheduled study sections and council meetings, excellent scores being told they would be funded, only to end up here. It certainly has been exhausting.

Thank you and totally agree, too many of us here between canceled grants and new funding models just dropped on us. Hoping there’s a chance for change in FY26 so there’s not more of us in this situation.

In the same boat with my R01 competitive renewal. Feeling any hope is now gone.

@jeremymberg.bsky.social If they can stop or stall the multi year funding from moving forward in FY26, can this 50% multi year strategy still be enforced for the remainder of FY25? Currently have an R01 caught in this limbo for FY25 funding consideration.
