Become a Merit/Peer Reviewer
The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Biological and Environmental Research (BER) program delivers financial assistance in the form of grants and cooperative agreements to states, local and tribal governments, universities, nonprofit organizations, for-profit organizations, and individuals. In accordance with Federal requirements, it is DOE’s policy that all discretionary financial assistance actions are to be awarded through a merit-based selection process. Reviewers are professionally qualified by training, experience, or both, in the scientific or technical fields that are the subjects of the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) and applications being reviewed. Being a reviewer provides insight on how financial assistance applications are evaluated and builds relationships with DOE personnel and others in the energy industry.
