g***s 发帖数: 17 | 1 最近拿到第一个NIH grant, 很缺乏经验,
第一年的budget是单位的grants officer给填的。
现在突然发现他填了$19K的fringe benefit,
但我们家的health insurance (family plan)最近改成了由我LD那边出(LD的benefit更好),不打算变了,
结果我们这里的manager说这种情况下单位还是会从我的grant里面拿掉$19K,而不能给我作其他用处 (e.g. research cost).
请问是这样的吗? |

your health insurance. |
g***s 发帖数: 17 | 3 what is the use of "fringe benefits" then?
So the institution simply takes this portion out of the grant no matter what?

d***a 发帖数: 13752 | 6 Fringe benefits include retirement plan, health insurance, life insurance,
and some other benefits. Yes, the institution just takes a fixed-ratio
portion out of grants. The part for student support also includes fringe benefits, usually with a lower ratio.
