I, too, have only served on one study section, and can echo Joni. Budget issues received only very brief discussion with the issue being whether is was acceptable or not, and if there were specific issues (was the sufficient PI effort). Budget does not affect the proposal's scoring.

I can second that. I have only served on one study section, but I can tell you that cost sharing did not pass anyone's lips. Joni. Jon Hart, M.P.A., C.I.P.

It is the quality of the proposal and the proposer, not any cheap-jack price, that results in an award. You cannot buy an award, and if it would be funded anyway, why subsidize the project; there are better ways to spend your money. Mandatory cost sharing excepted, of course.

Is there any communique from NIH that dispels that idea? Thx!
