Screenshot of email from NIH PO that reads: βUnfortunately, they have become very strict this round with the use of the word Aims (even if the PIs meant program projects) to describe discrete projects in their research strategy. This was decided at the Director level. There were a few other PIs that were I the same boat and all the applications were withdrawn.β
PSA for NIH R35s: My R35 was administratively withdrawn this year because I broke my Future Research into βAimsβ & they said this violated the βDo not submit a Specific Aims page or identify specific aimsβ policy.
So. Donβt use the word βAimsβ in an R35 - use βProjectsβ. #critical
Fingers crossed
