Preview: The Office for
Research (OFR) is responsible for all matters pertaining to research proposals
until such time as the contract, grant, or sub-contract is awarded. The OFR
must review the proposal and the Associate Dean for Research must sign approval
for the College of Medicine.
RESEARCH POLICIES:
Percent Effort
Each PI should work with his/her Department Chair to determine a reasonable
percent effort for the proposal and include the corresponding salary
required for that percent effort, if the sponsoring agency allows PI
salary. The PI need not include salary on proposals for internal
competitions unless the competition is expressly intended for salary.
Cost Sharing
The COM does not permit cost-sharing in excess of that required by the
sponsoring agency. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by the Associate
Dean for Research, Dean of the COM, and the FSU Vice President for Research.
Courtesy and Adjunct Faculty
Proposals may be submitted by Courtesy and Adjunct faculty through their
appropriate FSU departments, campus deans, and both FSU COM and FSU
Sponsored Research processes.
Regional Campuses
Any proposed contract or grant by a member of the faculty on one of the
regional campuses must be submitted through the COM OFR if that faculty member
uses his or her FSU title on the proposal.
Compliance
If Recombinant DNA, Human or Animal Subjects, Radioactive/Hazardous
Materials, or Workshops/Conferences are involved, the appropriate boxes must
be checked on the FSU transmittal form. If projects involving Human or
Animal Subjects have already been approved then the numbers/dates should be
supplied. Human or Animal Subject approvals need not be obtained prior to
contract or grant submission but must be obtained before funding is made
available. Similarly, education on the protection of human subjects need
not have been finished at the time of grant submission but must be completed
before funding will be awarded.
Graduate Student Costs
All graduate student Matriculation and Fee costs must be included in the
proposal budget or paid from an alternate source. If an alternate source is
used, the FSU budget number must be listed and an authorized signature for that
budget obtained on the FSU Transmittal Form.
ACCOUNTING SERVICES
Purview: The Accounting Services is responsible for all matters
pertaining to contracts, grants, and sub-contracts after the award is made.
