All proposals received through the open application mechanism are internally reviewed and the applying investigators notified of the status of their applications by the last week of each quarter. Proposals of interest will be referred for additional peer review by members of the NTAP Scientific Advisory Board and appropriate experts prior to final decisions. All submitted materials are reviewed within NTAP’s strict confidentiality guidelines. In addition to funding selected proposals, NTAP supports up to 10% in indirect costs, with an annual salary cap identical to that of NIH. See NIH guidelines.
