Study Section!
Whoo, I just got my first invitation to participate in an NIH review panel. I'm super excited! It'll be happening towards the end of my so-far-scheduled maternity leave, and it will be interesting to see whether that makes it more or less stressful to focus on (compared to when I'm back in business on campus)... It's also a field I'm really interested in, and a type of grant I'm relatively (in my junior investigator inexperience) experienced with. That will make it easier to not feel like a noob, although I am sure I still will. Should be fun!

Congrats, I wish they would let folks just sit in on those for fun, I'd pay money to sit through one and just watch what happens.
Cool!
You must promise to relay your experience!
Have fun!
Congrats! Doesn't really sound like fun though :)
Should be great experience, even if you'll end up wishing you had never signed up while it's going on.
Congrats Arlenna!
This is absolutely fantastic; there were few things more valuable to me in my own grant writing early in my asst professorship than serving ad hoc on study section. It's a terrific time drain but an excellent chance to see the process - kind of like watching sausages being made - I suspect that you will actually enjoy yourself!
Thanks everybody! :) I'm lookin' forward to it.
