Opportunity for Early Career Researchers: Call for expressions of interest to the Spring 2022 Reviewer in Training program

The CIHR Reviewer in Training (RiT) program offers Early Career Researchers (ECRs) a learning opportunity to gain a better understanding of the elements of high quality review and the peer review process through direct participation in the Project Grant competition with the support of a Mentor. RiT participants will be assigned up to three applications to conduct practice reviews, attend the peer review meeting, present one review, and participate in the committee meeting.

Following completion of the RiT program, participants will be promoted within CIHR’s Reviewer Pathway and are expected to participate in peer review when requested and available to do so.

Approximately 120 applicants will be selected, by lottery, which represents two opportunities per Project Grant Program committee.
