Message: [QUOTE="riskylogic, post: 650785, member: 1415"] I'll fess up to confusing the CIC with the AAU, a bit. But still: Peer review committees don't decide how much money they have to dole out. So, I'm sure the poster is entirely correct about the process he is a part of, but there is more to it than that. I know it happens, but where the politicking occurs, I can't say. In fact, maybe a good bit of it occurs within the AAU rather than in Washington. Land grant research vs. biomedical research, perhaps? In any case, if you know where the rain is going to fall, you can put your buckets out early. Failing that, moving the rain to where your buckets are works too. [/QUOTE]
