I have just been appointed to the research and development committee at my VA medical center. We have about 3 million dollars a year in outside funding that goes through our VA, and another 2-3 million that goes through a nearby medical school (for which we get no indirect costs). Our research office (which handles IRB and accounting) has an annual budget of 300,000 and claims that they are seriously underfunded. Does any one have a rule of thumb as to what is reasonable for funding of research office support, as a percentage of grants received? -- Thomas W.
