摘要

在美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）研究部门工作的评审员处于一个独特的位置，他们负责确定最有科学价值的拨款申请，以供考虑资助。因此，评审人员引导着美国科学发现的方向，并最终转化为对患者的护理。最近，许多研究人员对他们从美国国家心肺血液研究所（NHLBI）研究部门评审员处收到的评审质量表示担忧。我讨论了其中的一些问题，指出了其中的一些不足，并就如何改进基金申请的评审工作向评审人员提出了建议。

An open letter to the NIH cardiovascular study section reviewers.

The reviewers who serve at the National Institute of Health (NIH) study sections are in the unique position of identifying the most scientifically meritorious grant applications for consideration for funding. Consequently, the reviewers guide the direction of scientific discoveries in the US, which ultimately translate to patient care. Recently many investigators have expressed concerns about the quality of the reviews that they received from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) study section reviewers. I discuss some of these concerns, identify some of the deficiencies, and make suggestions to the reviewers on how to improve their review of the grant applications.

期刊介绍： Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry: An International Journal for Chemical Biology in Health and Disease publishes original research papers and short communications in all areas of the biochemical sciences, emphasizing novel findings relevant to the biochemical basis of cellular function and disease processes, as well as the mechanics of action of hormones and chemical agents. Coverage includes membrane transport, receptor mechanism, immune response, secretory processes, and cytoskeletal function, as well as biochemical structure-function relationships in the cell. In addition to the reports of original research, the journal publishes state of the art reviews. Specific subjects covered by Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry include cellular metabolism, cellular pathophysiology, enzymology, ion transport, lipid biochemistry, membrane biochemistry, molecular biology, nuclear structure and function, and protein chemistry.
