Assistance with Budgeting for MCCF Usage in Grants
Investigators who would like to use the facilities and expertise of the MCCF should contact Dr. Hughes or Dr. Holley to discuss project goals and strategies. We will work with principal investigators to design methodologies, timelines, and a budget for their project and grant proposal. We will provide letters of support for grant proposals when desired. The budget will be based on effort according to our fee structure for internal and external users.). For larger projects, it may be possible to include core manager, Dr. Dave Holley, as a co-investigator and budget for his effort directly in the grant budget.
