transfer of applicant institution for NIH award Carolyn Elliott-Farino 29 Mar 2010 18:05 EST

Hello. I voted today; did you?

We will have a new faculty member in the fall who submitted an R15 to NIH
in September (recovery act RFA) from his current institution and it looks
like it will be awarded (as far as I know, the actual award notice has not
yet gone out). The GMS has instructed us to submit transfer documentation
that would be required if the award had already been issued to his current
institution. Does anyone know if the procedure is different if the award
has not yet been issued? I searched the NIH policy manual but couldn't
find anything on that.

What about the budget -- will NIH allow us to calculate indirects using
our rate instead of the previous institution's, or are we limited to what
they could claim? Finally, they requested $250K in direct costs but the
RFA allowed up to $300K. I assume we are limited to the $250K?

Thanks. I have asked the PI to ask the NIH GMS but would like the
listserve's opinion. Just in case.
