>Hello all,
>We imagine that you have already heard about NIH's Challenge Grants
>as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment
>Act of 2008, and we would like to help. If you are interested,
>please look at the guidelines right away (see links below ),
>identify an appropriate topic, and let us know asap!
>
>The funding limit for each proposal is $1 million total ($500,000
>including indirect costs per year, for two years), and the research
>plan is limited to 12 pages. We can fill you in on the guidelines
>and the required components when you're ready to proceed.
>
>The deadline is Monday April 27th, but we urge you to send us all
>materials by Wednesday April 22nd to prepare the electronic
>submissions. There have been widespread technical glitches with
>grants.gov, and with a high volume of applications expected, we
>don't want to take chances by waiting until the last moment to try to submit.
>
>If you have questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us.
>We look forward to working with you.
