I came across this breakdown of the Federal Stimulus (Link) and it got me wondering...are CR4 members leaving stimulus money on the table because we aren't aware of what we qualify for? I'm hoping that if we pool our knowledge we might get a fundamental understanding of what's available.
I'm personally in a group applying for an NIH Challenge Grant (Link) but I was wondering what else I should be applying for. It's rare that government funding agencies have:
1. A lot of Money
2. A short time to issue it through grants
So is there any grants out there for Engineers, or regular people
who work a nine to five and want to make their house more energy
efficient or whatever? How can we get our piece of the stimulus pie?
PS. It is not my goal to make this a political discussion. Lets please just try together to break down what's in the stimulus for us, the CR4 community. If you are opposed to the stimulus, I respect that opinion, just please start your own post on it and leave this one alone.
