NIH third-party manuscript submitters may now designate an author of the manuscript to review the submission

NIH recently changed the manuscript approval process for third-party submitters. Previously the grant's PI was responsible for approving any manuscript submissions associated with the PI's NIH grant(s). Now in the final step in the submission process, Step 5 - PDF Approval, the third-party submitter (grant administrator, librarian, etc.) designates a reviewer for the submission. The reviewer must be an author of the manuscript.
