Approximately $1.5M from the current and previous fiscal year’s funding is available under this program.

If you plan to submit a pre-proposal, please alert Barbara Earl (864-7781, bearl@ku.edu) one week prior to the internal deadline. This information will assist RGS in organizing the review committee.
The pre-proposal should include (1) a three-page narrative (describing the proposed research, including key personnel and partnerships, addressing any special components requested in the agency's solicitation [p.5-Threshold Requirements; p.13-Application Review Information], and a generalized yearly budget) and (2) a short vita for the PI and all co-investigators, including funding history and current and pending support. Investigators may include suggestions of faculty members whom they believe are especially well qualified to evaluate pre-proposals for this initiative. Please submit this material electronically to Barbara Earl, manager of Proposal Services, by 5 p.m. on May 30, 2008 (bearl@ku.edu, 864-7781).
If the number of pre-proposals exceeds the mandated limit, an internal review committee will be formed to review all pre-proposals. The committee's intent is to select a proposer by June 9, 2008, thereby giving the proposer six weeks to prepare for the proposal submission.
If you have any questions about the solicitation or the process described above, please contact Barbara Earl.
