Challenges to Full-Cost Recovery

There is often a gap between what funders pay for indirect costs and the actual costs incurred. While cost-sharing can be a programmatically appropriate condition for some types of funding, it is not a sustainable practice over the long-term when seeking to maintain the infrastructure and excellence of an academic research enterprise….(read more)

Indirect Cost Recovery

Indirect costs — sometimes called overhead, facilities and administrative (F&A) costs, or shared expenses — are costs incurred in the conduct of externally sponsored research that are shared across a large number of projects as well as other functions of the University. Indirect costs include grant administrative services, lab operations and maintenance, depreciation and debt services taken on for new construction to provide researchers with modern facilities…(read more)

The Innovation Prize, organized by Universal Biotech, is aimed at highlighting the most innovative projects coming from young innovative startups and academic researchers from public or private sector in the field of healthcare.

This year, 3 prizes will be awarded:

• Biotech Prize (vaccines, drugs, molecules),
• Medtech Prize (medical devices and services, diagnosis),
• Digitech Prize (health NICTs including e/m-health, platforms and connected objects)

To stimulate the innovative spirit of the project leaders and to improve the visibility of the Innovation Prize 2017 campaign, we would like to propose a communication partnership. By promoting our campaign within your network, your organization will be recognized as an “ambassador” through our social media, during the innovation Prize 2017 campaign, and also during the Innovation Days 2017 in October, at which the awarding ceremony of the Innovation Prize 2017 will take place.
