Abstract
What is the position of various Federal agencies regarding the funding of collaborative international research in rehabilitation? What makes an international research proposal fundable by an agency whose primary mission is domestic? In this session representatives of several U.S. funding agencies will explain their policies on funding collaborative research projects and provide recommendations for U.S. researchers interested in international collaboration.
