Openness in Research
Stanford's policy on Openness in Research expresses Stanford's commitment to openness in research. The policy defines and prohibits secrecy, including limitations on publishability of results. Proposals for work involving secrecy, as defined in this policy, are not permitted and such projects may not be undertaken at Stanford. An Openness in Research checklist is available to review particular project requirements.

The website describes current policies, data related to the influx of new investigators, resources that new investigators can use to understand and work with the NIH, and helpful hints that might be useful in constructing a first application for NIH support.
NIH Tutorials with a helpful overview and tutorials on planning, writing, and managing a grant, as well as information on the grants review and funding process and even a "mock study section" video.
