Applicants who do not meet these basic requirements may be considered for the award under exceptional circumstances if their careers are judged to be in a developmental stage. The title of the proposed research; justification for the research; concise description of research objectives and methods; sources of partial support for the research and pending applications for support from other funds; budget outline must be included in the application email.
