clause text

Proposals may only be submitted by organizations within EPSCoR-eligible jurisdictions. Organizations must be accredited in and have a campus in the United States, its territories, or possessions. E-RISE proposals may not be submitted by organizations that serve as the lead organization on a current E-RISE or RII Track-1 award, unless that award is in its final year or under a no-cost extension. E-RISE submissions should be multi-institutional or multi-organizational with a lead organization and additional collaborating partner(s). Principal Investigators must hold at least 50% appointments in eligible organizations within an EPSCoR jurisdiction. Collaborations with other EPSCoR jurisdictions, non-EPSCoR jurisdictions, and international entities are allowed provided there is appropriate justification, though EPSCoR funds may only be allocated for activities and personnel within an EPSCoR jurisdiction.
