I wish you well.  If heartburn is all you get, you'll be lucky.  The DOE
collaborative submission due today has given me not only heartburn, but
ulcers, high blood pressure, migraine headaches, and any other symptom
that is "stress-induced"!!

Subject: [RESADM-L] DOE app on grants.gov

Hi all --

I'm helping prepare an application to the Department of Energy via
grants.gov, due 3/21. While I've submitted a handful of applications
through grants.gov, this one is giving me heartburn.

Our PI is collaborating with another institution. The other instiution's

PI will be the lead, and my faculty member will be co-PI. The guidelines

say that each collaborator must submit a separate application, but they
don't address how we indicate this is a collaboration or how DOE will
link our two applications. The budget pages have checkboxes for primes
and subawardees/collaborators, but don't define their terms or indicate
whether we include the other university's budget. Of course I'll also
email the program officer and helpdesk but I thought y'all could lend
your insights as well.

Ventingly yours,

--
