Dean, Mike, Ryan (& Dr. Chin!):

Keep in mind, we'll have to cut this to 15 pages, prior to submission on the 16th.

We'll need short paragraphs of "Results from prior NSF support" should that apply. (I attach mine as a guideline).

My schedule is crazy, but I'm confident we can succeed. I'm working hard to finish my budget (Duke only) today and tomorrow. Each of you (NCSU and OSU) will be submitting your own budgets as "Collaborative Research projects" which will be linked to Duke's submission.

Next week, I'll be up in Cape Cod (combining family vacation with some work at Woods Hole all next week). I will be in touch periodically with you thru that week and will plan to submit from Durham on the 16th July, Monday.

Main question for today and tomorrow, do you see any issues with Fastlane, or with budget?

Cheers!

Dan
