NSF's Merit Review Criteria - National Science Board Releases Report
The National Science Board (NSB) recently released a report on the National Science Foundation's merit review criteria. This review was conducted to determine if the merit review criteria used by NSF to evaluate all proposals remains appropriate. NSF reviews two criterion, intellectual merit and broader impacts, for every proposal the agency receives. The NSB did not recommend changing the two criteria, but it did recommend that NSF better define the two criteria for the benefit of the science community. The press release and a PDF of the full NSB report can be found here.
