Would you like to work with the most accomplished scientists in your field to provide fair and expert peer review of research and training grant applications submitted to the NIH? The Center for Scientific Review is recruiting dynamic, experienced research scientists in a variety of scientific areas. The successful candidate will be a respected, accomplished scientist with maturity, integrity and outstanding communication skills. Requirements include an M.D. or Ph.D. degree in the biomedical or behavioral sciences (or equivalent training and experience), a record of independent research accomplishments in your field, documented by an outstanding publication record and administrative background.
The Behavioral and Biobehavioral Processes (BBBP) Integrated Review Group (IRG), Division of Clinical and Population Based Studies (DCPS), is seeking two qualified scientists, with doctoral level training and research experience, to join a team of Scientific Review Administrators (SRA) to help shape the future of scientific review. As an SRA in the Behavioral and Biobehavioral Processes IRG, you will be responsible for the initial administrative, scientific and technical review of NIH research grant applications pertaining to behavioral studies of human psychopathology (e.g., severe mental illness, depression, mood and anxiety disorders, substance abuse disorders) across the lifespan. Research experience in clinical trials, neuroimaging and behavioral genetics is also desirable.
The Scientific Review Administrator is at the focal point of NIH peer review. SRAs analyze grant applications for key topic areas, recruit experts, conduct study section meetings, and prepare review documents. The position involves travel to scientific meetings, training in health science administration, opportunities to serve the larger NIH community, and career development activities.
Compensation is commensurate with research experience and accomplishments, and a full Civil Service package of benefits is available (including retirement and thrift plans as well as health, life, and long-term care insurance).
