Biomedical research grant resubmission: rates and factors related to success - a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Most first-time biomedical research grant applications are not funded. In the challenging research funding climate, resubmitting a grant application is a necessary task for scientists. Identifying which factors influence their decision to resubmit and the success of resubmissions will inform funders and applicants. However, data on resubmissions are fragmented and under-reported. In this scoping review, we aimed to summarise (1) the outcomes of resubmitting biomedical research grant applications and (2) the demographic characteristics of scientists who resubmitted grant applications.

Design

Scoping review with reporting informed by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses.
