All About Indirect Costs When I started Rock Talk, one of my goals was to lift the curtain on NIH decision-making and to demystify NIH policies and processes. One topic that I have talked endlessly about throughout my tenure ...

This handy NIH explainer about why indirects are so important--that is why they are critical for the research enterprise-- is worth a listen. It directly contradicts the statement, and justification for the cut, it issued last night. nexus.od.nih.gov/all/2015/09/...
