Dear Family Members,
I wanted to remind you that the deadline for NSF's Economics Program
(August 18, 2008) is fast approaching. 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 myself 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 60% 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.
Regards,
Alison
