Re: Modular grant application Herbert B. Chermside 28 Jun 2000 10:55 EST

Perfect application of the practice of requesting additional modules for
specific purposes.  Go for it!  Just be very explicit in your
justification.  I had a case in which the PI needed a different modular
amount one year because of obviously lower personnel needs in a final year
devoted to analysis of data that took a lot of activity to collect in
earlier years.
