CeDAR has funded many research studies, with grants ranging from $50,000 to $200,000 each. The maximum allowable overhead charged to a CeDAR grant is 15%, and the total amount (direct and indirect) cannot exceed $200,000. Grants are for one year from the time of fund transfer, with the expectation that results of the funded study will be published in a leading journal within two years of fund transfer.
