Colleagues,

Do you agree that final technical reports should be submitted for the
NIH grants that ended before the application for a competitive renewal
has been reviewed? I cannot think of a reason how submitting a final
progress report can be detrimental to the project's likelihood to be
funded in the new cycle. Has anyone experienced any problems with
closing grants and then getting a renewal funded? I am asking because
some PIs are not comfortable with the idea of closing their grants while
they are hoping that their competitive renewal to be funded.

Thanks so much for your inputs.

Zoya
