Nicole,
In the UK we have to complete a Justification of Resources for proposals to the UK Research Councils (NIH/NSF equivalent) on this we have to detail the role of the PI and CoI's, their % time involvement and a full description of the work they will be carrying out. A lot of Universities here use a table form to do that. I have only ever seen flow charts used on very large multi-partner European projects where it is more of a Role and Responsibility matrix.

I would say go ahead and use it, anything that makes your proposal stand out to the external reviewers.

BR, Colin

HI all – I just had a question from a PI that’s a new one on me and I didn’t see any specific prohibitions to this when I googled… this is for an NIH R21, modular, so would only deal with personnel…

 

Is it legal to make a small flowchart/figure within the personnel section?  I’ve never seen it done, but I would like to show the reviewers visually what each of the co-Is contribute… I’m a very visual person, and get lost with just 3 pages of text J

 

So – I found references to what should be in the justification, but didn’t find where it said a flowchart or graph would be specifically prohibited. Let me know if you know of any language regarding this.

 

Thanks~!
