| Description: | -The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) re-announces the program of large-scale collaborative project awards (glue grants), last issued as PAR-04-128 in July, 2004. These awards are intended to solve critical, complex biological problems within the mission of NIGMS by supporting a team of independently funded investigators to synergize and integrate their research efforts. -A phase I award consists of $50,000 in direct costs for up to one year, for project planning. -Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from phase II application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The maximum phase II award is $25 million in direct costs over a five-year period; applications for fewer years may not exceed an average annual direct cost of $5 million. Direct costs for one year may not exceed $7 million. This high level of resources is intended to allow investigators to form a consortium to solve a research problem by using a comprehensive and highly integrated approach. Indirect costs for consortium arrangements are not counted toward the maximum amounts. |
