The research grants will be used for research operating costs other than the salary of the investigator (e.g. costs of ERB approval, research personnel and other clinic reimbursements, costs of investigational laboratory testing, etc.).
INSTITUTIONAL FEES (OVERHEAD)
Research programs funded under B-CHERP are entirely investigator-
initiated. The AHCDC is a non-profit professional and academic
association which gives peer-reviewed research grants. The grantee
has no commercial or contractual obligations to AHCDC other than
those specified in the grant application. The research grants
awarded under the B-CHERP competition are for all the costs foreseen
by the investigator up to a maximum of $75,000 per year. Any
institutional fee or costs for conducting the research should be
included by the investigator in the budget submitted when applying.
It is generally expected that academic or research institutions will
not charge an overhead fee for the type of research grants awarded
by the AHCDC under its B-CHERP program. However any such fee should
be included in the budget and the total grant awarded will not
exceed $75,000 per year.
