How should the PPF request be calculated for investigators whose current funding derives from a combination of federal and non-federal sources?
For 100% grant-funded investigators whose current support is divided between federal and non-federal sources, PPF support will be calculated on a prorated basis to reflect the percentage of current effort devoted to federally funded projects. EXAMPLE: Investigator A receives 70% funding from federal grants, and 30% funding from non-federal sources. Investigator A intends to devote 50% effort to proposal preparation activities for a two-week period and requests PPF funding. The PPF would provide support of 35%(70% x 50%) of full-time compensation during this period.
