New Proposals
This page provides hourly rates to perform imaging studies and outlines the process for budgeting within grant applications if a research project will be utilizing SAIC equipment or services.
Budgeting for Research Scans
Research scans are considered "other costs" and are subject to Facilities and Administrative (F&A) costs. An exception to this rule may include scans funded by an NIH contract whereby F&A costs are explicitly excluded. If you believe F&A should not be charged to your grant, consult with your departmental grant accountant. Current F&A rates can be found at the Division of Sponsored Program's webpage Facilities & Administrative (F&A) Costs.
SAIC Fee and Service Schedule (FY25)
