Managing externally funded accounts varies depending on the source of funds. The Research Foundation's post-award services are designed to help you to focus on your project, rather than on its administration; however there are policies and procedures all account holders should be aware of. This workshop will help account managers of both research and self-support programs become familiar with SJSU post-award procedures - from how to get reimbursed to how to hire new employees and assign them to payroll. Meet the key post-award staff members who can assist you with managing the expenditure of your awarded funds.

The NIH AREA grant program supports small research projects in the biomedical and behavioral sciences. AREA grants are intended to create research opportunities for scientists and institutions that have not been major recipients of NIH research grant funds. This is an excellent opportunity for SJSU faculty to obtain NIH funding. Fifteen SJSU faculty members have received AREA awards since 1987. This workshop will review the program guidelines and submittal process, and guide faculty in writing a successful proposal. Proposal deadlines are June 25 and October 25 (non-AIDS-related); May 1 and September 1 (AIDS-related).
