My
study involves foreign grants and contracts.
NHLBI
Policy on Foreign Grants mirrors NIH policy. The Fogarty
International Center (FIC ) is the international component
of the NIH. FIC is involved in the foreign clearance
process for grants from a foreign institution or for domestic
grants that will utilize foreign sites for the conduct
of the research. The process for obtaining foreign
clearance can take a considerable amount of time. It
is recommended that you begin discussions with your Program
Director early in the process if your grant or contract
has an international component.
