Review activities of the NIH Center for Scientific Review (CSR) are organized into Review Branches (RBs). Each RB represents a cluster of study sections around a general scientific area. NIH grant applications generally are assigned first to an RB, and then to a specific study section within that RB for evaluation of scientific merit. An NIH study section consists of experts focused on a particular research field who are charged with reviewing NIH grant proposals. Special Emphasis Panels (SEPs) are held to review applications on special topics and members conflict applications.  The NIH Center for Scientific Review invited Dr. Fei to chair the NIH Study Section Special Emphasis Panel ZRG1 MOSS-V – Member Conflict: Musculoskeletal Sciences in November 2022.
