Partnerships for Environmental Public Health (PEPH)
October 23, 2015

Over the past few years, NIEHS staff members have heard from their grantee community regarding how grants management is a major challenge for a lot of community organizations interested in participating in environmental health research. This summer, we asked the PEPH Network to identify some of the major issues they have encountered. The purpose of this webinar was to provide some tips and guidance for community organizations trying to navigate the policies and regulations related to NIEHS grants. We used the tips to walk through some of the most frequently identified issues of establishing an indirect cost rate, establishing a consortium, and determining whether a project is engaged in human subjects research.
