Re: NIH Salary Cap Bruce Steinert, PhD - Urology Research 12 Apr 1996 06:57 EST

It is my understanding that the salary cap only applies to federal funding
sources. Most of the investigators in my Department (I am the exception)
are staff physicians and receive a salary from the hospital. The hospital
accepts the NIH support for the PI's budgeted % effort with the $125K cap.
The remaining salary is covered by the hospital. Payroll takes care of
the nuts & bolts to make it happen.

Hope that helps.
