Our F&A Rates for clinical trials is a separate rate than that of non-clinical research sponsored by corporate sponsors.  For example, a clinical trial sponsored by Jansen is 25% TDC, but a non-clinical project is the full federal rate of 46%.

Is this the practice at your institution?  I'm just trying to get a feel for how common this is.  I have a researcher that's pretty disgusted about our policy and I was curious if it's common or standard.  It's the first time I've run into it.
