We are pleased to announce a new document for center and institute faculty and administrators. The Guidelines for Establishing Organized Research Units was created to provide a tool to facilitate the development of multi-investigator collaboratory units that promote research that cuts across traditional disciplinary boundaries.
This document contains valuable information including: definitions of ORUs, procedures for naming an ORU , procedures for requesting central funding (matching funds), new requirements for ORU reports and reviews (for ORUs that do not have mandated sponsor reporting), and guidelines for funding between units. We will be adding templates and tools for ORU activities as they are finalized.
This document is located on the Research Center site at: http://www.washington.edu/research/centers/
If you have any questions or comments please contact Linda Gamman at: research@u.washington.edu
