Suggest you contact the NSF Policy Office to clarify. Beth Strausser (703-292-4574, xxxxxx@nsf.gov), Samantha Hunter (703-292-4575, xxxxxx@nsf.gov) or Jeremy Leffler (703-292-8075, xxxxxx@nsf.gov). All great folks. Foreign involvement of U.S. support is often tricky while not impossible.
Best,

Subject: [RESADM-L] foreign company wanting to collaborate on NSF MRI program
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of Broward College. DO NOT click links or open attachments unless you are expecting the information and recognize the sender.
Hi Folks,
One of my Chemistry professors contacted me this morning regarding an email from Aspect Biosystems in Vancouver. They approached her, a previous NSF MRI grant PI, about collaborating with them for the 2020 competition "to get you access to our technology". It's an enticing offer to her because of what they do, however, it sounds to me like they intend for her to get the grant but for the equipment itself to be installed in their facility.
I know that foreign collaborators can be included on this program in a non-funded role, but I cannot find information on whether the equipment could be installed at a foreign collaborator's facility (I can't imagine). Does anyone have documentation, or had a conversation with NSF at some point, that can answer this definitively?
Has anyone had experience with this company?
Thank you!
