This program supports the coordinated submission oof 2 or more related
applications that do not require extensive shared resources.

Can anyone interpret for me the statement: "Each application will be
reviewed independently for scientific merit, and those judged merititious
will be considered for funding both as an independent award and as a
component of the proposed interactive project"?

Does this somehow increase the probability of funding? If not,
should I advise faculty to consider this option, and if so why?

Thanks for your insight.

Charlie.
