The serial number is assigned by the Center for Scientific Review<\/a> (CSR).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Serial Number<\/strong> is assigned by the CSR. This number provides a unique identification to the project and is assigned sequentially for newly submitted applications. The Serial Number remains the same for as long as a project is active, even when the PI submits a competing continuation for a new period of support.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Support Year\u00a0<\/strong>indicates the current year of support (for example, 01 is a new grant).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Suffix Code\u00a0<\/strong>is used for supplements, amendments, or fellowship institutional allowances. The Suffix “A1” indicates that the application was submitted once previously but did not receive a sufficiently strong priority score to merit funding. This application is an amended version of the original one also called a “resubmission.” Other suffix terms are also used. For example, “S1” refers to a competing supplement request for a currently funded project.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00a0<\/b>The grant number<\/strong> is composed of the following parts: \u00a0\u00a0Example: 5 R01 HL123451-01A1<\/p>\n \tApplication Type Code (5) <\/p>\n Application type<\/b> is the first digit on an application identification number:<\/p>\n Type 1 \u2014 New \u2014 provides PHS support for a new research project grant.<\/p>\n Type 2 \u2014 Renewal \u2014 extends a project period that would otherwise expire for one or more grant budget periods; applications are peer reviewed and compete for funding.<\/p>\n\n
