SWAN Repository
Background:
The 3-tiered review process (itemized below) for the SWAN
Repository resources is being expedited to accommodate the NIH stimulus
funding applications.
EXPEDITED REVIEW PROCEDURE FOR APPLICATIONS TO THE STIMULUS-DERIVED
FUNDING (effective March 20, 2009 to November 1, 2009)
A. Submit a Letter of Intent
to the Repository Organization (RO):
a.
Indicate that the request is a stimulus-based funding application and the

Identify the specific solicitation (including subheading) to which the
application is directed
c.
Provide a clear statement of why and how the SWAN Repository resources are
optimal for this application.
d.
Include the goals, specific aims and hypotheses, and sample size estimates
for the application.
e.
Clearly identify the type of sample, number of samples, volume, processing
requirements and storage conditions for samples to be used in the
application.
f.
Demonstrate the appropriateness of the laboratory for this application
using published data, preliminary data or SOPs.
Make sure that laboratory demonstrates appropriate analyses in
human tissue.
g.
If a calibration study with existing SWAN data is needed, fully describe
the implementation of that calibration study.
h.
If the request is for already-generated data, double check to assure that
there is no known (and knowable) overlap and that proposed use is
consistent with the type of data requested.
