consists of two or more co-equal
investigators and institutions (also see
instructions for Curricula Vitae, below).
Æ PI Contact Information: Address,
phone, and e-mail for the principal

• Body of Proposal
Æ Abstract (optional): Provide an
abstract of the proposal summarizing
the problem or question to be addressed,
the methods to be used to address the
problem or question, possible outcomes
of the work, and the utility of the
research for advancing science and
management related to marine
mammals. Please limit the abstract to
approximately 200 words.
Æ Introduction, Background, or
Problem Statement: Provide a review of
past related effort by the research team
or others. Indicate knowledge gaps,
shortfalls of prior efforts, or challenges
to further progress and describe how the
proposed effort will address these
issues.
Æ Goals and Objectives: Provide
statements of both the general or broad
goal of the proposed research and the
specific objectives that will be
addressed within the scope of this
proposal to make progress toward the
broader, general goal.
Æ Methods: Provide a detailed
description of the methods of the
investigation so that the reviewer can
understand how you will address each
of the specific objectives. If you are not
conducting original research but are
developing a workshop, review panel or
other activity, describe the nature of the

Æ Tentative dates and location of the

journal articles, an equipment
prototype, and report).
Æ Research and Management Utility
(Long-Term Outcome): Describe the
anticipated long-term utility of the
project and its implications for future
research, management, or conservation
activities.
• Budget and Time Line: Although
there is no specified format for the
budget, this section should provide
sufficient detail to inform the reviewer
of expenses or costs by general category
(salary, equipment, supplies, travel,
publication, overhead, miscellaneous)
and by sub-tasks within the proposed
effort, as appropriate. Include
information on other sources of funding
for the project, if applicable. For multiyear or multi-stage projects, include a
time table for completion of each phase
as a means of gauging progress toward
completion of the full proposed effort.
• Curricula Vitae, Research Team
Qualifications: Provide a curriculum
vitae or short biography of no more than
two pages for all key members of the
proposal team (those individuals whose
unique background and experience are
essential to completion of the project),
including their experience or expertise
related to the subject proposal.
Although there can only be one
principal investigator (see Title Page
guidance), multiple co-investigators can
be designated in this portion of the
proposal, if desired.
• Supporting Materials: Supporting
materials such as recent publications,
short descriptions of relevant work in
progress or recently completed,
organization charts or time lines will be
accepted, but should be limited to
information absolutely essential to
understanding the significance,
approach and context of the proposed
work. The presence or absence of
supporting materials will not be a
consideration in proposal evaluations. It
is highly recommended that supporting
materials be limited to fewer than 20 to
30 pages or 5 Mb; the more material
provided, the less likely it is to be used
by the reviewers in developing their
evaluations.
Submission process: Proposals should
be submitted electronically in MSWord,
WordPerfect, or Adobe PDF format to
Ms. Mina Innes, Research Program
Officer, at the Marine Mammal
Commission, e-mail address
