Please use the following scoring guidelines: 10 – Exceeds the minimum requirements for this domain and all other comparable proposals in this domain; it should be considered the top proposal for this domain 9 – Exceeds the minimum requirements for this domain, and exceeds more than 90% of comparable proposals 8 – Exceeds the minimum requirements for this domain, and exceeds more than 70% of other proposals in this domain 7 – Exceeds the minimum requirements for this domain, and exceeds 50% of the other proposals in this domain 6 – Meets the minimum requirements for this domain, but is in the lower 50% of proposals in this domain 5 – Meets the minimum requirement for this domain, but is not distinguished 4 – With minor improvements/infrastructure it will meet the minimum requirements for this domain 3 – With major improvements/infrastructure it will meet the minimum requirements for this domain 2 – May not meet this domain’s requirement 1 – Does not meet this domain’s requirement and the project is unlikely to succeed Significance Score(Required)Considerations for this domain: Does the project address an important problem or a critical barrier to progress in skull base? If the aims of the project are achieved, how will scientific knowledge, technical capability, and/or clinical practice be improved? How will successful completion of the aims change the concepts, methods, technologies, treatments, services, or preventative interventions that drive this field? What research priority identified by the NASBS does this need satisfy? 10987654321Investigator's Experience Score(Required)Considerations for this domain: Are the PD/PIs, collaborators, and other researchers well suited to the project? If Early Stage Investigators or New Investigators, who are in the early stages of independent careers, do they have appropriate experience and training? If established, have they demonstrated an ongoing record of accomplishments that have advanced their field(s)? If the project is collaborative or multi-PD/PI, do the investigators have complementary and integrated expertise; are their leadership approach, governance and organizational structure appropriate for the project? 10987654321Innovation Score(Required)Considerations for this domain: Does the application challenge and seek to shift current research or clinical practice paradigms by utilizing novel theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions? Are the concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions novel to one field of research or novel in a broad sense? Is a refinement, improvement, or new application of theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions proposed? 10987654321Approach Score(Required)Considerations for this domain: Are the overall strategy, methodology, and analyses well-reasoned and appropriate to accomplish the specific aims of the project? Are potential problems, alternative strategies, and benchmarks for success presented? If the project is in the early stages of development, will the strategy establish feasibility and will particularly risky aspects be managed? 10987654321Environment Score(Required)Considerations for this domain: Will the scientific environment in which the work will be done contribute to the probability of success? Are the institutional support, equipment and other physical resources available to the investigators adequate for the project proposed? Will the project benefit from unique features of the scientific environment, subject populations, or collaborative arrangements? 10987654321HiddenTotal ScoreConfidential Comments to Committee:Comments to the Grant Applicant (please provide comments about any strengths and weaknesses you would like to share with the Applicant, as the feedback is very helpful):(Required)Grant ID
