How closely will the projects and cores implemented during the first year planning year correlate with the proposals in the applications?
The proposals submitted by successful applicants will form the starting point for the discussions in the Steering and Coordinating Committees in the planning year. During these discussions, areas of shared interest will be identified among the Research Centers, along with new scientific opportunities that may have arisen since the grant applications were submitted. It is likely, therefore, that the scientific proposals will evolve in some ways during this process, but the main thrust of the proposed science is not likely to change dramatically. Please see the FAQ section on Cores for additional information.
