Details

*       No LOI Needed for Currently Funded 4YR Project PIs. PIs with a
4-year project underway in the Coordinated Project or TSCI categories do not
need to submit an LOI, instead they will submit a continuation request for
Year 3 funding on their projects. All currently funded PIs will receive an
email from the NFO with full details in August and do not need to submit an
LOI or use the Pre-Proposal submission process for active projects.
