3 RRT Supports 6 Major Grant Preparation Milestones Search for new FoAs multiple times a week and upload onto our website Individualized outreach to potential PIs Awareness of Potential Funding Revision & Resubmission RRT suggests new opportunities for unfunded proposals Identify researchers and find collaborators Talent Search Brainstorming & Viability Assessment Mock Review RRT provides support in facilitating internal and external review processes RRT invites and hosts structured brainstorming sessions involving potential investigators from all CTSI institutions. Writing & Budget Preparation RRT grant management software Tailored time and people management Automated task assignments and preset deadlines for 85 tasks Automated notifications Real-time project access Shared document functionality

4 RRT Mission The UCLA CTSI Rapid Response Team Grant Submission Unit (RRT GSU): supports the grant application process provides administrative support and infrastructure streamlines processes creates successful collaborations provides grant management support, tools, and software Services offered free of charge

5 Grant Proposal Management Software Grant Proposal Management Software Grant Time Management Helpful Reminders Task Notifications Shared Documents Reports Review Facilitation Technical Support Document Tracking

6 RRT Software Secure Document Storage and Sharing Automatic s for all project members Control permission of specific folders/docs Version tracking

7 The Goal More team science More successful large NIH grants submitted and funded More PCORI

8 PCORI Opportunities CER Interest Listserv for PCORI and other CERopportunities Support for PCORI applications Advice and assessment of appropriateness PCORI review criteria Budgetary considerations

9 Path to PCORI Funding IDEA Foundation Grant (to test feasibility) Did it work? Yes No R21 No Did it work? Yes R01 No Did it work? Yes PCORI

10 Revised PCORI Review Criteria 1. Impact of the condition on the health of individuals and populations 2. Potential for the study to improve health care and outcomes 3. Technical merit 4. Patient-centeredness 5. Patient and stakeholder engagement

11 Changes in PCORI Review Process Simplified criteria and requirements for written critiques 2-year standing panels to enhance reviewer consistency Expanded merit reviewer application to match reviewers better with applications *From:

12 Feedback for Patient-Powered Research Network (PPRN) Submission Criticisms/Weaknesses Strengths

13 What is Patient Engagement to PCORI? Criticisms/Weaknesses: Weak patient involvement No clear participation/collaboration Patient involvement in governance not clear Research on and participation by patients are not the same thing Patients should be at the planning table Focus Groups are not good enough Need to build from existing relationships

14 What Does PCORI Like to See? PPRN Application Strengths Achievable goals Strong leadership Leveraging of existing resources/relationships Engagement from partners outside of research community/university Emphasis on diversity Clear and obvious patient engagement Preliminary data, evidence-based, beta testing, proven ideas
