Applicants from Cycle 22 (Collaborative Research Grants) may submit a new proposal for consideration in Cycle 23. However, a proposal submitted for Cycle 22 may not be resubmitted and will not be considered as eligible for Cycle 22. As the Joint Board will not approve more than one grant for the same principal investigator (PI) during two consecutive funding cycles, whether they serve as PI or Co-PI, applicants will be removed from consideration for Cycle 23 if they are selected for funding under Cycle 22.
