Welcome

Welcome to the Novo Nordisk Inc. ISS Management system for investigator-sponsored studies. This site allows you to submit an application to Novo Nordisk for ISS support and is restricted to the submission of ISS grant requests only. If you would like to submit a grant request for an independent medical education program, please visit https://www.novonordisk.com/external-support

The review of an ISS begins with submission of a concept. The decision is then made to invite a full protocol or decline. Please allow a minimum of 8 months to review both the concept and full protocol. Submission of an application does not mean that Novo Nordisk has agreed to provide support for your study. Decisions are made only after Novo Nordisk has made a comprehensive review of your complete application. All requests are reviewed for scientific merit, compliance with legal, ethical, and professional obligation, as well as fiscal responsibility.
