ASHFoundation Connections 5: Demystifying the Review Process
6/12/2025
Have you ever received reviewer comments and have not known what to do next; how best to interpret and apply to the development of future proposals? Join a panel of past ASHFoundation reviewers and applicants on June 12, 3:00–4:00 p.m. EST, for a discussion that will take the mystery out of the research grant review process, interpreting reviewer critiques, and applying feedback to improve subsequent proposals. This valuable open conversation will benefit first-time and returning applicants alike.

This session is open to all but has limited capacity. Register here.
