IBACS Administrative Assistance Form
Please use this form if you are interested in requesting time from IBACS coordinator, Melanie Stroud. The goal of this position is to not only help PI's obtain administrative funding on grants by already having a person identified but to also offer assistance to those who are only awarded enough funds to pay "percentages" of admin support, e.g., 30%, as these part-time positions can be difficult to fill. Another goal is to retain institutional knowledge by offering continual employment to one person rather than the current cycle of re-hiring every time a new grant is awarded. This position is fully funded until FY25. Therefore, in addition to long-term requests to "buy out" time, we are also able to grant short-term project-based requests for those who cannot offer financial support for a limited time if under 70 hours total.
