A lot of people are saying that this is going to hurt ESIs the most. More broadly, this hurts grants that have a lot of variance in their preliminary scores. But as long as Reviewers can still exercise their ability to discuss a triaged grant, then the damage can be mitigated.
I posted yesterday about the shift to triaging 70% of NIH applications rather than 50%.
This is apparently just a temporary step to catch up for all of the study section meetings cancelled due to the government shutdown.
I hope NIH will collect some data to track the impacts of this change.
