What are the maximum and minimum dollar amounts that can be requested per year and for the entire five year project period?
The maximum amount that can be requested per year is $400,000 direct costs plus appropriate indirect/F&A (facilities and administrative) costs. The maximum amount that can be requested over five years is $2,000,000 direct costs plus appropriate indirect/F&A costs. F&A costs requested by consortium participants are not included in the direct cost limitation. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary, the size of each award will vary. Although the financial plan of the NCMHD provides support for this program, awards are contingent upon the availability of funds and the receipt of meritorious applications.
