Good video! Share with staff and friends.
🧪This video, by the Association of American Universities gives a REALLY good explanation of F&A costs. I think it is important that people watch this to adequately understand why scientists oppose the 15% cap. It is difficult to explain this fully with threads here.

Great example of educating your neighbors, friends and family outside the university. This is important to do and do often!
I and my colleagues, @carpenterlab.bsky.social and Carol Greider, wrote an op-ed for our local media site, @lookoutsantacruz.bsky.social, about the recent cancellations of NIH funded training programs meant to broaden participation in science at UCSC:

HEADS UP: If anyone is submitting an app this week or soon, check with your grants office to make sure they have language that allows them to correct indir cost recovery if the 15% level is modified. It is likely that they will be on top of this, but it's possible to lock in the low rate by mistake

This is a distribution of indirect cost rates for R01 grants. These data are relatively old (2013) but these rates are relatively stable.
