Who approves IMRI awards for funding?

After the in-person meeting, PCORI program staff evaluate final merit review panel scores and comments, identify duplication or synergy among funded projects, and consider the fit of applications within the programmatic vision. PCORI program staff also consider the funds allotted for the current PFA when deciding which applications to recommend for funding to the Engagement, Dissemination, and Implementation Committee, which is a subcommittee of PCORI’s Board of Governors, and then Board of Governors.
