Patient and public involvement: peer review
The Central Commissioning Facility are looking for members of the public to help in
reviewing research proposals.
Peer review is a way of checking the importance and appropriateness of
research proposals. It is also sometimes called refereeing. The Central Commissioning
Facility asks a range of 'experts' to provide written opinions about research proposals
that have been submitted for funding. These may include: members of the public, clinicians,
academics, health economists, policymakers, health professionals, researchers and statisticians.
If you would like to know more about peer reviewing, further details can be found on the INVOLVE
website www.invo.org.uk
If you would like to register your interest in getting involved in the commissioning or peer review
process for the NIHR programmes please follow this

Payment
We are able to pay members of the public for commenting on proposals in line with the
Department of Health's approved scale of fees. www.invo.org.uk
