serving five years in staggered terms.
The Committee is responsible for receiving and evaluating
research grant proposals and making recommendations to the Board of
Directors for their disposition.. RESEARCH FUND PROCEDURES
SWROGA will award grants periodically for fundamental and
applied research on orchids. The
purpose is to advance the scientific study of orchids in any respect,
including classification, evolution, propagation, culture, care and
development. Awarding oa a grant is a detailed process
involving review by the Research Committee and final disposition
by SWROGA’s Directors. Proposals may be submitted for support on an annual and
potentially recurring basis. Applications concerning the scientific
study of orchids which require elaborate facilities or costly and
unusual scientific equipment will be considered only for qualified
members associated with an accredited educational institution or
organization. Submissions
are to be screened by a three-member group comprised of members of the
SWROGA Research Committee, excluding the Chairperson.
Applications deemed appropriate will be directed to the full
committee for review at the earliest practical time.
The SWROGA Research Committee will not hesitate to consult
outside authority in assessment of any grant proposal.
Grant applications received by January 1 are to be reviewed by
the Research Committee at the Spring Meeting, and those applications
received by July 1 are to be reviewed at the Fall Meeting. Grant applications may be in any format deemed appropriate
by the applicant. Five copies of the complete application must be
submitted in writing (hard copy), double-spaced to the President of
SWROGA. Within three weeks
of receipt of an application, the President of SWROGA will forward the
application to the Chairperson of the Research Committee who will
appoint the preliminary reviewers and furnish them with a copy of the
application. The preliminary
reviews will furnish their written assessment to the chairperson within
thirty days. The assessment
may include recommendation for approval, recommendation for disapproval,
suggestions for modification and re-submission, or a suggestion that the
application be referred to an outside authority for comment.
Applications recommended for disapproval by all preliminary
reviewers will not be considered further.
The Chairman of the Research Committee will inform (in writing)
the President of SWROGA of the disapproval of the application by the
Research Committee. The
President of SWROGA will inform the applicant of the Research
Committee’s decision. Applications
recommended by the preliminary reviewers for re-submission after
modification, or with one or more recommendations for approval will be
considered by the full committee. Before
the meeting, each committee member is responsible for reading each
proposal and determine its merits. At
the Research Committee’s meeting, committee members compare notes,
discuss the options, and through debate ad discussion, formulate a
recommendation to the SWROGA Directors of which applications to fund.
Recommendations for funding of approved applications will be made
to the Directors at the SWROGA meeting during which the Research
Committee has completed processing of the application.
Those applications for which outside authority is to be
considered will be handled with due regard to time.
The appropriate outside authority will be solicited by the
Chairman of the Research Committee after consultation with the members
of the Research Committee. The Chairman of the Research Committee will inform the
President of SWROGA of those applications recommended for re-submission.
The President of SWROGA will then inform the applicant of the
committee’s decision. An
application recommended for re-submission after modifications is NOT to
be considered as approved or disapproved pending changes; it is to be
taken as having merit and worth further consideration by the applicant
and the reviewers. Once funding of a grant application has been approved by
the Directors of SWROGA, the grantee will be notified by the President
of SWROGA. The grantee will
be obliged to submit a written report of his progress at six months
intervals to the Research Committee through the President of SWROGA.
Continuing support is continent upon presentation of an
acceptable written report prior to the end of the current funding.
Scientific publication of the results of any SWROGA-supported
research is encouraged with appropriate credit for funding from SWROGA
noted in the publication. A synopsis of the results will be published in
the SWROGA News, affording the SWROGA members a tangible return for the
expenditure. SWROGA grant funds may provide a MAXIMUM of 10% of the
amount granted to cover administrative costs to the grantee’s
institution.
In exceptional circumstances, SWROGA will receive monies
for directed grant support of individual projects/researchers.
After submission of an abbreviated proposal from the grantee;
these funds will be disbursed to the designated recipient, after
approval of the Research Committee and the Continuing Operating
Committee. THE
