> Designating Multiple PIs
>
> The designation of Multiple PIs should be based on the requirements of
> the research project. It is anticipated that the number of PIs will
> rarely exceed five (5). The UW also expects that the Contact PI on the
> NIH application will be the contact person within the UW and will act
> as the primary point of communication with the research team during
> the proposal and award processes.
>
> The person designated as the PI on the "SF424 (R&R)" face page, Block
> 15, will be the Contact PI. This is the individual through whom NIH
> expects communication regarding the project to flow. Aside from this
> communication responsibility, there is no difference between the
> Contact PI and other PIs on a project. All share the same rights,
> responsibilities and credit. All PIs will have access to the ERA
> Commons information about the proposal, all will be listed on the NGA,
> and all will be identified in the CRISP system as PIs.
>
> Once the Contact PI is entered into Block 15 of the face page, his/her
> information will populate the "PROFILE – Project Director/Principal
> Investigator" block on the "Research & Related Senior/Key Person
> Profile (Expanded)" page. You will still need to enter this
> individual's ERA Commons username in the "Credential, e.g. agency
> login" field and upload his/her Biographical Sketch.
>
> The remainder of the PIs will need to be entered into the "PROFILE –
> Senior/Key Person X" (where X is a number from 1-40) block on the
> "Research & Related Senior/Key Person Profile (Expanded)" page. The
> Project Role for these individuals will be "PI/PD." (Note that NIH
> does not recognize "Co-PI" as a valid project role.) Also, be aware
> that the ERA Commons username for each individual listed as a PI/PD
> must be included.
>
>
> Leadership Plan
>
> A leadership plan is required for all Multi PI proposals.
>
> * Examples of a leadership plan
> <http://grants1.nih.gov/grants/multi_pi/sample_leadership_plans.pdf>
>
>
> Following are the instructions from the "NIH SF424 Application Guide"
> regarding the content of the plan:
>
> For applications designating multiple PDs/PIs, a leadership plan
> must be included. A rationale for choosing a multiple PD/PI
> approach should be described. The governance and organizational
> structure of the leadership team and the research project should
> be described, including communication plans, process for making
> decisions on scientific direction, and procedures for resolving
> conflicts. The roles and administrative, technical, and scientific
> responsibilities for the project or program should be delineated
> for the PDs/PIs and other collaborators.
>
> If budget allocation is planned, the distribution of resources to
> specific components of the project or the individual PDs/PIs
> should be delineated in the Leadership Plan. In the event of an
> award, the requested allocations may be reflected in a footnote on
> the Notice of Grant Award.
>
> The UW requires that all leadership plans, at minimum address three
> points:
>
> * The Contact PI will assume the same functions within the UW as
> with NIH and will be the person responsible for communication
> with the other project team members and OSP during proposal
> submission and throughout the project period.
> * Any dispute arising from the project will be addressed first by
> the PIs. If a resolution cannot be obtained, then the respective
> Chairs and/or Deans will convene to resolve the dispute. Should
> further resolution be necessary, the dispute will be referred to
> the Vice Provost for Research by the respective Deans, and the
> decision of the Vice Provost will be final.
> * The PIs will follow the intellectual property policies and
> practices of their respective institutions, with support and
> assistance from the applicable technology transfer office(s).
>
> The leadership plan will be uploaded as a separate (PDF) file to Block
> 14 of the "PHS 398 Research Plan" form page.
>
>
> Required Certifications
>
> NIH requires the UW to maintain on file the following certification
> for all PIs designated on a project:
>
> "I certify that the statements in this eGC1 and the related sponsor
> application are true, complete and accurate to the best of my
> knowledge. I am aware that any false, fictitious, or fraudulent
> statements or claims may subject me to criminal, civil, or
> administrative penalties. I agree to accept responsibility for the
> scientific conduct of the project and to provide the required progress
> reports if a grant is awarded as a result of this application."
>
> These certifications are obtained through SAGE as described below.
