8.12 Principal Investigator

Enter the first and/or last name of the PI. Please use standard ASCII. There can be only one PI per proposal. Entering the first few letters (at least two) and pressing enter or tab will bring up a window containing a list of matches from our proposer database. Clicking on your entry will supply APT with the address information. For U.S PIs (see Section 12.2), the institutional affiliation is defined as the institution that will receive funding if the proposal is approved.

If you are not in the database, click on "New Entry". If you are in the database, but the address information is incorrect, click on "Update This Address." Both clicks will take you to the ProPer tool so you can be added to, or update information in, the database. Once you have entered your information into ProPer, you will be able to immediately redo the database search and supply APT with the information.

Contact

For Large and Treasury Programs, we will contact the proposer within 1-2 weeks of the submission deadline if we need to verify our understanding of the appropriate scheduling constraints. If a Co-Investigator is to serve as the contact for this verification, then the Phase I Contact box should be set accordingly. Only one person may be designated as the Contact.
