Mac users preparing for the upcoming NIH grant cycle will want to check
out our templates for the PHS 398 application form.
They are available at: http://129.22.87.13
There are pointers on our page to archives at SUMEX-AIM and IUBio.
While you are there, please check out our post-doctoral position that is
available in signal transduction.
These forms are updates of the templates I distributed in 1991, which were
modifications of some done by others. I have incorporated the changes for
the revised PHS398 application, dated 5/95, for use after 1/1/96. I don't
have the non-comp or the NRSA forms yet. If you make them send them along
to me at djt2 at po.cwru.edu and I'll post them.
The templates are in Word 5 and Excel 4 format. I have not, and do not
intend to update them to Word 6 or Excel 5 format.
The documents are in Stationary form for your own protection. PLEASE COPY
THE COMPLETE FOLDER BEFORE MODIFYING THEM. This is because the Excel files
are linked (the 5 year automatically updates when the 1 year is modified)
and separated files will be frustrated. Note that in most cases salaries
and raw data get input in the non-printing part of the sheet, to the
right.

By the way, I do not have similar sheets for those attached to the
Micro$oft umbilicus. These may translate well to MS Word4Win, but there
are no guarantees.
Almost all of the Emails for help I get are from PC users who expect me to
have PC-based templates. I do not. Do not ask me where to get them. You
can probably find some by querying a web indexer with "NIH grant templates
PC". Don't expect the results on a PC to be as nice as the Mac templates.

Best of luck with your proposals.
