NASA Research and Education Support Services (NRESS) is seeking individuals willing to serve as peer reviewers for the NASA MUREP Space Technology Artemis Research (M-STAR) opportunity.
Information about this opportunity, proposal requirements and evaluation criteria can be found on the M-STAR landing page on NSPIRES.
Peer review is a critical component of the decision-making process for awarding projects. By engaging individuals with different backgrounds, perspectives and areas of expertise in the review process, your participation will assist in identifying high-quality projects.
Willingness to serve as a peer review does not guarantee selection. Reviewers will be selected based on the subject matter of the proposals received. If selected, you will be notified via email, with detailed instructions on the process.
The peer review process is completed in two stages. The proposals are first reviewed individually and anonymously online. When the online review period ends, a three-day panel will convene to discuss the proposals and identify those recommended for funding.
The Online Review Period is scheduled for 13-20 August 2026. Proposal narratives are 15 pages and every effort will be made to assign no more than 8 proposals. Non-civil servant online reviewers will receive $75 for each proposal review completed and submitted in NSPIRES prior to the close of the review period.
Note: If selected as an online reviewer, mandatory training will be held on 12 August 2026.
The Virtual Panel Review is scheduled for 26-28 August 2026 with back up dates 31 August and 1 September 2026, if needed. Panelists are expected to participate from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM EDT each day. Non-civil servant panelists will receive a $200/per day honorarium.
Note: If selected as a Virtual Panelist, a mandatory training will be held on 25 August 2026.
If you are interested in participating in the peer review process, please complete the M-STAR 2026 Response Form, no later than 31 July 2026.
Please submit inquiries regarding this request via email to [email protected].
