We bought a truck for a project in S America and had the paperwork drawn up before we shipped it that it would be donated to the local university at the end of the project.

That is, until the truck sank in the river.... kdt -----Original Message----- From: Research Administration List [mailto:xxxxxx@hrinet.org] On Behalf Of James L Reisert Sent: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 9:19 AM To: xxxxxx@hrinet.org Subject: Re: [RESADM-L] cars Seriously, be sure you know what happens to it. We had a truck (a Toyota from when quality apparently mattered) in Africa that was sold for cash at the end of a project. We credited the Feds for the money.

I have an NIH R01 application with a sub to a hospital in China. They will be gathering TB specimens from clinics and transporting them to their lab.
