To all,
Given the reduction in escalation from 3% to 2% (below), how will your institution propose? Will you still use 3% to guard against the possibility the rate may increase in later years, or will you propose 2%?
"The FY 2010 appropriation as specified in P.L. 111-171 provides NIH a 2 percent inflation allowance to NIH investments in research supported by research grants. Implementation requires a reduction to previously established commitments, based on a 3 percent inflation allowance. Accordingly, each Institute and will use its own discretion to allocate the adjustment among its non-competing research grants (modular and non-modular) to ensure compliance with the 2 percent inflation allowance provided in its FY 2010 committed level. Future year commitments will be adjusted accordingly."
Thanks.
Bob
