What format should be used to present the overall aims of the center and the research aims of individual elements? Should they be presented in separate sections of the application?
There is some flexibility in the format to be used. For P50s, the center’s theme and overall aims, and the role of each individual component, should be described in detail. They may be presented in separate sections or discussed together at the applicant’s discretion. Whichever approach is chosen, the issues of integration between the center’s theme and overarching aims, and the aims of each individual component must be clear and strongly justified. For P20s, there is more flexibility, as the overall aim of the P20 should be to position your institution to develop the needed resources to submit a P50 grant application after two years. The purpose of the P20 is to plan a research center rather than actually complete a research plan.
