Re: A Chance to Do That Research Administrator "Stuff"-external reviewers' fund Hahn, Janet M 23 Jul 2004 11:47 EST

Larry, your "external reviewers' fund' is an interesting concept.
How does that work?  What do you pay?

"Stuff"

A whole month - unbelievable.........

We have a fund  to pay external reviewers. In this case we would
obviously seek a reviewer who had done reviews for the NSF.

At a crucial moment during the film "Top Gun," Anthony Edwards tells Tom
Cruise, "OK, Mav, it's time for some of that pilot 'stuff'!" He means by
this, of course, that the time has come for Mav to demonstrate the
heroic qualities and talents that his carriage and demeanor so clearly
imply.

It is in this spirit that I ask you guys for some advice. I have a PI
coming to my office this morning (so please send your responses directly
to me as well as the list - the list seems to delay posts substantially
at
times) who
has completed a National Science Foundation grant proposal about a month
prior to its due date. He is a first time applicant to NSF, though he is
a tenured faculty member. What would be the best thing to do with the
"extra" time we have to improve the proposal's chances? Please make some
effort to prioritize your ideas (recommend he do this, beg that he do
that, that sort of thing).

This is your chance (my chance, actually) to do some of that research
administrator "stuff"!
