A-12.3) Individual Post-doctoral Fellowship Awards

• An F32 grant from NIH
• Individual postdoctoral fellowship from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
• Individual postdoctoral fellowship from Roche Corp. (Note: F31 is the NIH activity code for Individual Predoctoral Fellowships)

• None in most cases.
• If a sponsor pays overhead, it is credited to the “Institutional Allowance.”
• Terms for overhead are being defined; UCOP policy has stated that F&A should be applied when possible (non-federal sponsors).
• Financial aid paid directly to an individual as a stipend is exempt from the indirect cost base. This exemption does not apply to fellowships that provide salaries, wages, or honoraria to UCSF employees.
