I would think if the  Institutional Official at Institution X allows her/him
to  be a PI representing "their" organization then it would be all right.
The only problem I could see would be certifying the salary commitment based
only on a one day appointment at X.   Most institutions have policies on the
eligibility of submitting PIs.  Usually, special permissions can be granted
but ultimately I would think it would be up to Institution X.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Faculty with Dual Appointments

Hi all,

I was wondering how you deal with the following issue: we have a full-time
faculty member at our institution that also has a 1-day/week appointment at
another public research institution (Institution X). The faculty member asks
me if they can submit as the PI with Institution X, since they will use most
of Institution X's equipment and resources . So far, I have always told her
that since her full-time appointment is here, she can only be the PI at our
institution, and someone at Institution X can be the Co-PI (subaward). Or
Institution X can be the prime (with another lead PI), and she can be the
CO-PI on the subaward to our institution.

What are your thoughts on this issue?

Thanks!
Marina
