Can multiple UIC ACC protocols cover one grant?
Yes, certain grants/funding applications may require approval on multiple protocols (e.g., program project grants, center grants, multiple collaborators, etc.). When multiple protocols are required to cover all aspects of a single grant, each protocol must list which portion of the grant it is covering (e.g., project 1 of a program project grant, specific aim 1 and 2 of an RO1 grant, etc.). In addition, a Form G Umbrella protocol must be submitted. The PI of the grant should be the PI of the Form G protocol. In order for UIC to transmit information related to ACC approvals to the funding agency, all aspects of a grant involving animals must be covered by a protocol. Form G protocols serve to link all ACC approvals together for the purposes of the grant and to provide a single date of ACC approval, which is the date that should be submitted to the granting agency. Failure to cover all aspects of a grant will result in a delay in transmitting the necessary approvals to a granting agency
