Subject: NSF Deadline Announcement

Dear Family Members,
I'd like to let you know that the next proposal deadline for NSF's Economics Program is August 18, 2010. Proposals are submitted electronically, through Fastlane ( www.fastlane.nsf.gov ). Fastlane works very well, and we will do our best to make this process as pleasant for you as we can. PIs are required to complete the following sections -- a 1 page project summary, a 15 page project description, references, and a 2 page CV, as well as a form for current and pending support.

You may either choose to work on and upload these sections of the proposal yourself, or e-mail your files to me or to Alterra Milone (alterra_at_nber.org), and we will assemble the proposal in Fastlane for you. We can work with you to put together a budget, and complete the other forms.

Please note that if you are planning to submit a proposal with a Co-PI, your Co-PI does not have to be NBER-affiliated.
 
For those who receive their summer support through NBER (including Co-PIs who are non-NBER affiliated), the pension contribution is equal to 20% of the amount of the salary. Please note that we have a low indirect rate of only 62% of salaries and fringe benefits.

If you have any questions about any part of the application process, please do not hesitate to contact Alterra or myself.

Thanks,
Alison
