 I wouldn't do this at gunpoint.  If a PI is trounced and mystified as to why, they are going to talk to their colleagues and possibly to you for some insight.  Your "formal" requirement will create the impression that you think that the PI's work for you, that you are a superior who has a right to information so that you can direct their activities.  I assume that your intentions are to help and I understand that pink sheets are a rich source of insight, but the comments have to do with the research design about which you likely know very little detail.  PI's sometimes will continue to make the same mistakes.  However, they are grownups and will learn (or not) experientially.  That means you don't get to see their report cards and they keep trying until they get an award.  If they don't, we aren't in the salvage business, our efforts are for those with fire in their belly, not rocks in their head..

Subject: [RESADM-L] Proposal Review Comments

We are planning on implementing a formal policy which will require PIs to share reviewer comments with us. This will help us guide those who are developing re-submissions and those who have received rejections and are uncertain what course to pursue. To date, we have only asked that these comments be shared with us on an informal/volunteer basis.

So, do any of you have such a policy, and how successful and useful has it been.

Larry
