The USC Norris Research Administration team, led by Cathy Le, provides pre-award grant management services to USC Norris members. These services include the execution of grant applications following sponsor guidelines, the creation of grant budgets and justifications, review of all application required documents, and facilitating the approvals process required for submission. Le and her team then work closely with the principal investigator(s) and institutional officials on all aspects of the grant submission process. Furthermore, the Research Administration team also provides pre-award grant management support to individual principal investigators who receive most of their salary funding from USC Norris.
