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.
