HHS/CDC does not set minimum effort requirements for the regular research project grants. The only HHS/CDC grants that have a minimum effort requirement are the Career Awards (K’s). To translate the minimum effort requirement for K awards (75%) based on a 12 month calendar year appointment the calculation would be 12 x .75= 9 person months.
