Foundations of course have very different goals than NIH for example, but there are some opportunities to do good here and asks are potentially more manageable since it’s bridge style funding.

Hopefully rare 😬.

I have heard a few happened, but not sure the details. It’s nice to know the school has a plan in place.

This is very specific regarding rare stop work orders. The school said if you get one let them know and they’ll asap in terms of assessing legality, rewriting if possible to comply, and potentially bridge funding.

It’s a policy others should adopt bc stop work orders are immediate.

And they get cut as part of the award and then often after the award based on if the government is on CR, or budget doesn’t rise. We make do with less constantly.

All NCI grants have been cut 20% from what you request for some time. The size of the grant hasn’t increased since 1998, so we need multiple grants to run a lab now. We get 20% less, but at least we get money. It doesn’t come close to covering the costs, but can’t operate otherwise.
